SANKOFA, O MOVIMENTO DE ESTENDER E APRENDER

EXTENSÃO FEMINISTA DIANTE DA CULTURA CIENTÍFICA DE GÊNERO

Abstract

This text seeks to reflect on the learning resulting from different experiences in university extension practices. Based on the location of gender schemes in scientific culture, as well as our insertion in the construction of feminist anthropological know-how, we seek to problematize resistance to the practice of university extension, as well as the possibilities of equating the teaching-research-extension tripod in academic activities . We identify, in the context and references to the extension, social markers that reverberate inequalities present in the surrounding society. Our exercise is inspired by the representation of the African ideogram Sankofa: we remember how the word extension materializes in our lives, from the history of references in university education, to the unique way in which we experience it in our personal and professional lives. . So we focus on this moment of remembering what we have experienced to seek new ways of producing knowledge.
