Extension Networks: Territory, Gender, and Social Clubs in the General Pueyrredón District

Abstract

The main objective of this paper is to deepen theoretically the experiences carried out in the field of university extension during 2024, as a result of two proposals approved and funded by the National University of Mar del Plata. In this sense, we will detail the actions carried out in articulation with neighborhood and sports clubs of the city, and the actors involved (students, teachers and professionals) who, for different political, neighborhood, associative or civil belongings, articulate the critical extension in their socio-community places of belonging. In relation to the latter, the aim is to explore how territories are built from the subjects that inhabit and make the city. On the other hand, from an intersectional perspective, we will focus on gender issues related to sports activities, specifically on the structural inequalities that limit the access of girls and adolescents to the field of soccer.
