Network of gender, feminisms and memories
For the period 2026-2028, the Working Group on Gender, Feminisms and Memories We have set ourselves objectives in three lines of work:
1) Feminist genealogies, emotions and memories.
In the current political context, emotions and feelings are key to understanding both the advance of conservative and anti-rights groups and feminist uprisings, the resistance of cis and trans women, and other marginalized groups. Furthermore, emotional energies play a role in how memories of past social struggles are revisited to advance the fight for rights.
2) Genealogies of work on women and gender since the origins of CLACSO. We will recover the institution's history in terms of its contributions to this group's thematic field. We believe this is a way of constructing history, rescuing and bringing to the forefront the discourses and knowledge from different historical/institutional moments.
3) Conservative advance, patriarchal restoration and feminist resistance.
We aim to reflect on the current challenges facing feminism in the face of the advance of anti-rights and anti-feminist discourses and policies from contemporary right-wing movements. We believe it is essential to generate knowledge and political action that will allow us to halt the erosion of rights and the increasingly frequent and brutal forms of violence.
