Aprendiendo de Australia. El feminismo en la enseñanza y la práctica de la arquitectura

Abstract

This communication presents the works led by the architects Naomi Stead and Janet McGaw, based at several Australian universities. They share feminist approaches to their teaching and research practices, which encourage a deep debate on how the gender perspective strengthens pedagogical bases for a most equitable and inclusive teaching and professional practice. Base in the Universities of Queensland firstly and Monash nowadays, Stead is making visible the inequalities that female architects have in the contemporary Australian architecture discipline. Therefore, she is proposing solutions through the Parlour project. McGaw has been developing different workshops on 'minor architecture' with an interdisciplinary and transversal approach close to eco-feminist and postcolonialist thinking.
