Women think, plan and construct our buildings and cities, our living spaces. However, gender equality is not yet a reality in various social and professional practices. We see this in the face of physical and psychological violence suffered by women, lack of recognition, occupational impositions, wage differences, and so many others. This panorama concerns women from all over the world, but also within the architecture there are statistics that prove how women are still not socially and professionally valued.
Inside this framework of devaluation and inequality, black women face an even greater panorama of invisibility. The racial prejudice rooted in our society, as well as the still segmented opportunities generate a disparity of quantity and recognition of black professionals in the classes and areas of action of Architecture and Urbanism.
