Abstract

This text reflects on the urgency and potential of integrating a feminist perspective in architecture and its education, historically conceived from an androcentric vision that suppressed the voice of women and minoritised social groups. In this context, the experience of the inter-university virtual programme LINA Feminist Architecture Design Studio is presented, which has been running since 2020 for 400 students from 15 architecture schools in Latin America. Its goal is to stimulate future professionals who base their spatial practices with a true sense of inclusion, equity, diversity and innovation. Far from reaching a conclusion or showing an exemplary educational model, these notes aim to invite us to think about the role of education in transforming cities into more just and democratic places.
