Research Focuses on Women in Southern Cone Secondary Student Movements
The secondary school student movement has been a key player in social mobilization processes in Latin America. However, its historical study has been marked by gaps, especially regarding the role of women. To help bridge this gap, the Dicyt 2025 project, led by academic and director of the History Department, Dr. Rolando Álvarez, in collaboration with historian Dr. Yanny Santa Cruz, proposes a comparative and gender-based look at the experiences of secondary school women’s participation in the Southern Cone between 1957 and 1976.
