Upper course in equal opportunities

Despite the great advances that have taken place in history regarding the recognition of the female gender, the rights recognized to women, etc., today the equality between sexes is not yet real and effective. It is for this reason that the development and application of policies and strategies that promote this real equality between men and women become a justified and necessary work. Similarly, given the inequality between sexes, the female group becomes a group that has an area of its own intervention, with professionals that require specialization and commitment to the cause. The intervention with women goes through the recognition of equality policies as something totally necessary, and of obligatory execution.
