PACIFICO, Florencia Daniela. The production of spaces for caring. Ethnographic reflections on forms of collective organization of women in social inclusion programs. La ventana [online]. 2024, vol.7, n.59, pp.156-186.  Epub 12-Abr-2024. ISSN 1405-9436.  https://doi.org/10.32870/lv.v7i59.7738.

This article seeks to contribute to the debate on the social inclusion of women from popular sectors. Recovering conceptual contributions from feminist perspectives of economics and feminist geography, we seek to reflect on different collective forms of care and reproduction of life developed by women from popular sectors. We will consider how the spatial dimension and the possibility of transforming domestic and neighborhood material spaces are put into play. The analysis is based on the results of an ethnographic research carried out with members of the Argentina Trabaja and Ellas Hacen programs in Greater Buenos Aires, Argentina. I will explore the links between spatiality and care through three axes: the generation of collaborative networks among women to solve child care; the development of collective forms of reproduction of life through the renovation and improvement of domestic and neighborhood spaces; and the production of community care spaces for children. My analysis seeks to contribute to the discussions regarding the promotion of social inclusion of women from popular sectors addressing the inequalities present in the current social organization of care in a situated way that considers the times and spatialities involved and the way in which the material spaces condition its development.
