Abstract: The study aims to identify collective self-esteem in the communities settled in the Aymara provinces of the Puno region, in that perspective, the objective is to describe the characteristics of collective self-esteem; in the same way to analyze the ways of conceptualizing them and interpret the collective living self-esteem of the populations under study. The methodology that was used was ethnographic and hermeneutical; The work collected perceptions and attitudes related to the type of self-esteem and participation in the communities under study, where in-depth interviews and focus groups were applied in three areas: south, center and north. The results show us that the population of the Aymara communities are aware of their belonging to social identity groups and categories and these are determined and related to the socio-cultural environment, which lead to a positive or negative perception of collective practices and everyday. It is concluded that in the Aymara communities an expression and manifestation of collective self-esteem persists, which has been reconfigured according to socio-cultural changes. The study helps to improve the perceptions and decisions related to the Aymara rural communities in Puno.
