La incorporación de lo territorial en el abordaje de los problemas sociales ha ido en aumento en Trabajo Social por su relación con la constitución histórica, política, económica y cultural de estos. El territorio no es una dimensión geográfica más en los análisis de realidad social, sino que se corporaliza y explicita en materializaciones, simbologías y relacionamientos de quienes le habitan. Incorporar la historicidad de los territorios es preguntarse por las implicaciones de la colonización, el patrón de poder instaurado y su actualización con la modernidad colonial, reproducida en la existencialidad y en las instituciones en que se soporta. Es imposible que los procesos de transformación social logren su cometido mientras la colonialidad se reproduzca en el orden social que les naturaliza, hace imperceptibles e incuestionables. La descolonialidad territorial es desprendimiento de la matriz colonial y Trabajo Social puede aportar para que la intervención se abra a otros saberes, otras formas de habitar y vivir en los territorios. Esta es la reflexión epistemológica que se presenta en este escrito. Surge de la investigación compartida con colegas de Trabajo Social, con quienes por varios años nos preguntamos por el Trabajo Social y su compromiso ético en la contemporaneidad. El objetivo es destacar la importancia de la colonización como elemento determinante en la constitución histórica de los territorios, cuya colonialidad es menester indagar en las biografías, los contextos y las cotidianidades. Los colectivos, pueblos, comunidades y organizaciones intentan cambiar y mejorar su diario vivir. La Interculturalidad es un hecho inevitable de relacionamiento que puede constituirse en proyecto de transformación y liberación. Desde su ética, Trabajo Social debe contribuir a la descolonialidad de los territorios, pues compromete la vida y su dignificación.
