Sumario: | This article assesses the process for the elaboration of intercultural policies in the Municipality of San Carlos de Bariloche, which is located in the Argentinean Patagonia. This municipality was declared “intercultural” by Ordinance No. 2641-CM-15 of 2015. By focusing on this case, the article employs the concept of interculturality and explores how to operationalize it in those processes that aim to elaborate specific intercultural public policies. Therefore, the article exposes the commitments assumed by the State in the aforementioned regulations, and the limits and the possibilities that its participatory management model implies. Finally, the article proposes how to contribute – from a research, argumentative and impact perspective – to an itinerary that transcends the population’s perspective with which the municipality operates in its daily work. This proposal consists in implementing government practices and the elaboration of public policies from a perspective that I call “intercultural with intersectional lens”
