  1. Museos con perspectiva de género

    4D AGO

    Museos con perspectiva de género

    El mes de la historia de las mujeres es un tiempo de reflexión sobre la lucha histórica por la igualdad de género. El verdadero impacto de estas conversaciones se da cuando continúan más allá de una sola fecha. En el nuevo episodio de Museums and Chill, la arqueóloga y especialista en patrimonio cultural Camila Opazo-Sepúlveda nos invita a reflexionar sobre el papel de los museos en la descolonización y la equidad de género, y por qué es fundamental que estas discusiones se sostengan a lo largo de todo el año. A lo largo del episodio, Camila comparte su visión sobre cómo los museos pueden cuestionar narrativas hegemónicas, integrar la perspectiva de género en sus exposiciones y fomentar el diálogo intercultural sin reproducir dinámicas coloniales. También nos hace preguntarnos: ¿Cómo pueden las instituciones culturales garantizar que el feminismo y la equidad no sean solo temas de marzo, sino principios incorporados en sus prácticas diarias? HOST DE ESTE EPISODIO Anapaula García Soto es coordinadora de comunicación en el Consejo internacional de museos. Antes de incorporarse al ICOM, Anapaula trabajó en diferentes proyectos de comunicación.
