Svelare l'invisibile: progetti di ricerca per la parità di genere nel patrimonio costruito

Why have women’s qualitative and quantitative contributions to construction often been forgotten or culpably omitted from official narratives? To answer this question, the proposed contribution critically reviews several actions and research projects the authors undertake. While the projects MoMoWo and Tecniche Sapienti focus on the object, namely the built heritageand the professionals, the WAA project identifies the subjects who analyse and preservethe documentation related to this heritage. Beyond academic boundaries, the Italian Ministry of Culture also addresses the theme. The objective istwofold: to fill the gap in studies concerning the contributions of female designers in Italy and Europe and to trigger a process of knowledge and collaboration between subject and object.
