Abstract

The aim of this study is to interpret the ancestral practice of "Ayni" as a form of communication in
values that contributes to the emotional well-being of Aimara university students. A mixed exploratorydescriptive research is used; 339 semi-structured interviews were administered to students at the
National University of Altiplano Puno (Peru) to collect statements on emotional well-being that have
been subsequently categorized and based on it. An online questionnaire was designed and applied
to 2,779 students, of which we identified 324 of Aimara origin; in addition, open interviews were
applied to three experts who interpret the perspective of "Ayni" in the Aimara context. The results
show that this ancestral practice persists in Aimara university students as a form of communication
in community values, reconfigured by migratory processes in the university setting, being with their
family and academic achievement generates emotional well-being.
