Violencia de género y educación sexual integral. Activismos estudiantiles en un contexto de politización feminista

Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: Integral Sexual Education (ISE) in Argentina is a key public policy in the field of sexual and gender rights, although its implementation has been uneven across provincial jurisdictions as well as within educational institutions. The enactment of Law 26.150 in 2006 and subsequent advances in curricular definitions reignited a series of debates around sexuality, gender and education. This article aims to analyze the meanings that ISE has acquired among young students involved in feminist or gender-related activism, within a context of feminist politicization. Based on interviews conducted between 2018 and 2023 in various cities across Argentina, the study explores the experiences, demands, and meanings constructed around ISE, particularly in relation to gender-based violence. The research documents how youth collectives appropriate and reinterpret ISE content through feminist frameworks, while also facing tensions and resistance regarding the inclusion of gender agenda. Finally, the article raises questions about the role of schools in supporting youth through a perspective that acknowledges the diversity and complexity of sexual experiences.
