Abstract
This study analyzes the strategies used by museums and cultural institutions to highlight the role of women in history, science, art, culture, and society. The paper compares two curatorial strategies in Mexico and Colombia which include a gender approach. On the one hand, the Women’s Museum in México is dedicated exclusively to women’s history. On the other hand, the National Museum in Colombia has been developing new strategies to include a gender approach in curatorial proposals.This research on gender representation in cultural institutions will allow an evaluation of what have been the contributions, risks, and deadlocks to overcome in order to increase representation and participation of women in cultural institutions.
