SOLIS-BELTRAN, Gloria; FERNANDEZ-RONQUILLO, Mario; SOLIS-GRANDA, Luis  and  TERAN-PUENTE, Carlos. Gender inequality in educational processes that incide on violence against women. Podium [online]. 2018, n.33, pp.13-24. ISSN 2588-0969.  https://doi.org/10.31095/podium.2018.33.2.

Gender equality is considered a legal matter and a requirement for family and society health and development. Many authors believe that education is key to reducing group inequalities. The aim of this research is to investigate the impact of gender inequality on educational processes and its incidence on violence against women in Ecuador. Literature review, debate and discussion on the subject have expanded and deepened in recent years; greater social awareness has been evidenced. This has made it possible to visualize case studies related to female educational spaces, and to gender violence in general. Although the development of gender studies has not been prolific in Ecuador, it is expected that this situation will change in the coming years because of the establishment of a legal and theoretical framework.

Keywords : Gender inequality; educational processes; violence; women; gender equity.
