Abstract

Aware of the importance and impact of the university  function of extension or social projection in the  Colombian and Latin American context as a tool for  transformation and development, in recent years  Colombia has been monitoring the role of women in  the exercise of said university function.

This document then contains a synthesis of what was  found in this regard during the last five years, allowing  readers to know the closing of gender gaps in the  direction, planning and management of university  extension in the multiple Latin American higher  education institutions, both public and private... This  is based on a documentary review and a series of  interviews carried out with those responsible for the  university function in 20 countries of the region and  around 180 institutions.

Thus, the text speaks of women directors, heads  and managers of the university extension or  social projection and proposes a reflection on the  feminization processes, the subjects involved in the  university function, as well as the type of participation  in the extension teams.
