Abstract

To be an immigrant woman is a double form of gender and ethnicity stigmatization.
To the forms of inferiority that Western women still live, as victims of strong familial and social imbalance, as well as heavy forms of violence and possession, for the immigrant women the present cultural restrictions and the fate of being perceived as “different” will add to, in terms of skin color, language, and the identity that defines them. They are women whose diversity passes by us, often in invisible and silent forms, which we must recognize and welcome as female educators. Through this work of meeting and of knowledge, the skills of gender pedagogy intertwined with those developed by intercultural pedagogy help us.
