Abstract | |||||||
Gender violence is a social problem that mainly affects women. Studying this phenomenon is relevant in the university environment to account for its existence and magnitude. This article presents the analysis and results of a descriptive, quantitative study, which aimed at showing the various expressions of gender violence in a public university in northern Chile in the Social Work program. On the basis of field work carried out from a survey directed to students, the results show how gender violence is present in educational spaces and practices, forming part of a continuum of multiple aggressions in different socialization contexts and particularly finding themselves buried in the formative experiences of the students. Likewise, the different manifestations, scenarios and actors in the practices of violence in the university are surveyed. As a conclusion, it is suggested that Higher Education institutions are educational spaces where institutional strategies must be established to act in favor of education in equality, inclusion and the eradication of any form of aggression that threatens the freedom and equality of people. |
