Through research that combined a literature review and anonymous digital surveys conducted among the academic community, perceptions of gender disparity were explored. The results reveal that structural and cultural barriers remain present, and that traditional stereotypes and roles continue to shape women’s experiences. Women often feel the need to constantly prove their worth in male-dominated fields. This situation affects their sense of belonging and participation, creating discomfort when expressing themselves in spaces where they are a minority. Likewise, the study identified experiences of harassment and inequality that are often overlooked within the university setting. The study concludes that in order to advance toward true gender equity, it is necessary to strengthen education with a gender perspective, implement effective institutional policies, and promote a collective commitment that includes the active participation of the entire university community—especially men—as a fundamental part of cultural change.

A lo largo del cursado, los estudiantes llevaron adelante proyectos de investigación–servicio en los que articularon sus saberes de inglés con los contenidos propios de sus carreras y con la resolución de problemáticas reales de la comunidad. El proceso incluyó la lectura y el análisis de textos académicos en inglés para la elaboración del marco teórico, la selección de un problema relevante, el diseño e implementación de una metodología de investigación, y la comparación de resultados con los aportes de autores especializados. Cada proyecto culminó con la redacción de un informe final en formato de paper, presentado en español e inglés, siguiendo una plantilla estandarizada.
