Abstract

Culture of gender in education sector and its implications on sexism in educational institution is a research that the University of Seville has studied and has leaded in the last years. In this paper, we show the first step of an investigation, leaded by Ana Guil Bozal, financed by Instituto de la Mujer (Prevenir la violencia contra las mujeres, evitando el sexismo en las instituciones educativas, 2013-2015) where we study the relation between the culture of gender and different ways of discrimination based on gender matters, specially violence. From the Doing Gender Theory (West and Zimmerman, 1987) point of view applied to an educational sector, there are different aspects that we could identify and that affect institutions from a gender perspective. The Doing Gender model identifies three levels: socio-cultural, relation and personal. In this first step of the project, we analyze the relational and personal level. Also, we added in our analysis the resources level, not included in the Doing Gender Theory, and where we study the human and economic resources available to work in gender area in educational organizations. There are relations between the people involved in education, mainly as follows: students, teachers and management team; then, their own system of values, attitudes and behavior; human resources with specifically training in gender matters and the economic resources. Violence against women can be face with education which must include a gender perspective. All the aspect involved in the daily education practices have reflected on the position of women in society.
