Abstract

Introduction: The process of building gender identity is a socially produced phenomenon and subject to influences exerted by the different insertion spaces. It is a priority to work on this issue from childhood, to establish flexible and equitable relationships, where the feminine and masculine are not exclusive, nor sources of conflict. Objectives: This research aims to understand the social representations of stereotypes and gender roles in school-age girls and boys, and to propose strategies to create teaching processes that include the addressing of the subject. Methodology: Using qualitative methodology, under the post-positivist paradigm, with a methodological theoretical approach of focal ethnography. The study will be carried out through the analysis of visual and narrative content. The selection of the participants will be by means of a convenience sampling and will correspond to schoolchildren who attend the fifth year of basic education in a municipal school in the district of Recoleta, Santiago city, Chile. The participants must be more than ten years old, agree to their participation and have the consent signed by their parents or legal guardians.
