This article emphasizes the importance of girls and women enhancing their social role and overcoming the barriers of stereotypes and the different forms of discrimination associated with gender that hinder their full participation in conditions of equity and equal opportunities. By resuming the category of gender as a social construction, it positions the school as an auspicious setting for empowerment, participation and the strengthening of democratic culture.
Keywords : democratic culture; empowerment; school governance; gender equity.
