| Summary: | Conversations held during the seminar "Arquitectura contemporánea: casa, ciudad y comunidad" (Museo Amparo in Puebla, Mexico, May-July 2021) with nine contemporary Mexican female architects. The discourses, with coincidences and cross-references, of each architect in this series critically rethinks, from their own position, the way in which architectural practice is interwoven with certain forms of oppression and exclusion related to gender, but also with class or with the racialization of certain people. "In the speech and work of the female architects who participated in this seminar, we will be able to understand that "under the protection of women", there are other different ways of understanding the house, the city and the community, which promise us possibilities of action in the face of the urban, social and ecological challenges that we face today."
