This thesis explores the establishment of Latin American epistemologies of design, grounded in the region s social, cultural, political, and economic experiences. Through an interdisciplinary lens, it seeks pathways for a collaborative construction a design identity that represents Latin America through its own foundation. In this sense, education plays a crucial role in intertwining with design, as it serves as the main space for analysis in constructing epistemologies that encompass its practice in this context. The main objective is to propose a framework for Latin American design epistemologies applicable in interdisciplinary educational settings to promote socially relevant and culturally sensitive practices. The thesis includes case studies from projects at the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro and the Pontifical Catholic University of Valparaíso, illustrating effective teaching dynamics guided by design methodologies.
