Resumen
Durante más de cuatro décadas la presencia de la población de origen miskito en Costa Rica, la conformación de su comunidad en la capital y la apropiación de este nuevo territorio han sido invisibilizadas por la sociedad hegemónica y por el Estado costarricense. Para la construcción de esta reflexión se partió de los resultados obtenidos en el año 2014 en el estudio Acercamiento a la población miskita en Costa Rica, que se complementaron y se pusieron en perspectiva con revisión documental, algunas entrevistas y un grupo focal. En el marco del Bicentenario de la independencia de Centroamérica se consideró importante recuperar esta aproximación metodológica y cultural que ejemplifica la complejidad y la variabilidad de la población en Costa Rica. En este sentido, se concluyó que registrar esta diversidad cultural y social es el primer paso para políticas sociales más inclusivas.
