PANTOJA BOHORQUEZ, Clara Patricia; MARTINEZ GRISALES, Karen Johanna; RINCON VIVAS, Jessica Paola e BOADA ARIAS, Linda Vanessa. Women and Community-based Urban Agriculture: a Multi-case Study in Bogotá, Colombia. Convergencia [online]. 2024, vol.31, e22287. Epub 04-Out-2024. ISSN 2448-5799. https://doi.org/10.29101/crcs.v31i0.22287.
The study aims to delve deeper into the role of women involved in community-based urban agriculture initiatives and to recognize their practices of resistance in seven collective initiatives of the northwest of Bogotá, Colombia using a qualitative methodology and a multiple case study approach; the study highlights the importance of an intersectional analysis of women´s experiences. The analysis shows a commitment to food sovereignty, as well as the transformation of relationships with nature, expanded life and the resignification and appropriation of public space. It concludes that women play a significant role in community self-management, with a high recognition of their knowledge and achievements; furthermore, networks of affectivity and intergenerational exchange, strengthen female autonomy and leadership, which extends to other scenarios of socio-political participation. All of the above turns the initiatives into counter-hegemonic positions and resistance practices to the capitalist and androcentric model.
