María Cleofé Sumire López de Conde (born April 9, 1951 in Sicuani , Canchis Province , Cusco Region ) is a Peruvian lawyer and politician .

Life

María Sumire, whose native language Quechua , is growing as the daughter of the founder of the Farmers' Association of Cusco (Federación Departamental de Campesinos del Cusco) , Eduardo Sumire , in the village community Collachapi on (district Layo, Province Canas, Cusco region).

As a lawyer, Dr. María Sumire advised the farmers' association of Cusco in its struggles for land rights and advised women's organizations. She belongs to the Methodist Evangelical Church of Peru, is a leading member of the Andean Women's Association (Asociación de Mujeres Andinas) AMA and was one of 1,000 candidates for the 2005 Nobel Prize .

In 2006 , she was elected to the Peruvian Parliament as a candidate for the Unión por el Perú , where, after her colleague Hilaria Supa Huamán , she took her oath in Quechua on July 25, as the second member of parliament in Peruvian history , both of which was supported by the Fujimori supporter Martha Hildebrandt and some other MPs were heavily criticized.

María Sumire was the author and initiator of the draft law "Law for the Protection and Use of the Original Languages ​​of Peru" (Proyecto de Ley 806: Ley para la preservación y uso de las lenguas originarias del Perú) , which again led to heated debates with her opponent Martha Hildebrandt gave. The law was finally passed at the end of the legislative period on June 26th 2011 as “Law regulating the use, protection, development, recovery, promotion and dissemination of the original languages ​​of Peru” (Ley Nº 29735: Ley que regula el uso, preservación, desarrollo, recuperación, fomento y difusión de las lenguas originarias del Perú) and published in the Official Journal of El Peruano on July 5, 2011 . In its form as a law defending linguistic rights, it is the first and only such law in the history of Peru. Today this language law (Ley de Lenguas) is the basis for numerous steps in the language policy of Peru, such as the establishment of a separate directorate for indigenous languages ​​at the Ministry of Culture, the creation of an official ethnolinguistic map for intercultural bilingual education by the Ministry of Education (MINEDU), the planned establishment of an institute for indigenous languages ​​and the training of interpreters for indigenous languages ​​at the Peruvian government.

Due to an agreement in her party that MPs only stay in parliament for one term, María Sumire, like her group colleagues, did not run for the parliamentary elections in April 2011. Unlike her colleague Hilaria Supa, she also did not run for the Andean parliament .
