"We'll not do anything for you, we'll do it with you": Women's organising for gender equality in an extractivist context

这项研究旨在通过分析参与“洛阿妇女网络”组织的妇女的经验和观点，批判性地探讨采矿对性别的影响，侧重于三个关键方面-健康、工作和性暴力-与妇女社区组织促进性别平等之间的交叉点。该组织在过去12年中组织起来，在大规模资源开采的背景下捍卫自然资源和性别平等。该组织是一个多元化的空间，包括来自不同种族和社会经济地位的妇女，她们生活在智利北部阿塔卡马沙漠的Alto Loa农村地区和Calama城市地区1。

This research seeks to critically explore the intersection between the gendered impacts of mining, focusing on three key aspects - health, work and sexual violence - and women's community organising for gender equality, through analysing the experiences and perspectives of women involved in the organisation "La Red de Mujeres del Loa" [the Loa women's network], who have organised for the past 12 years in defense of natural resources and gender equality in the context of living with large scale resource extraction. This organisation is a diverse space encompassing woman from different ethnic and socioeconomic positions, who live across the rural sector of Alto Loa and urban sector of Calama in the Atacama Desert in north of Chile1.
