This paper explores the understanding of gender in the scientific production on racial identity in the Brazilian geography. To achieve this goal, a survey was carried out at the Brazilian Geography Observatory, which currently has 25,437 catalogued papers from 1939 to 2019. The keywords that guided the search were: raça, racialidade, negro, negritude, etnicidade, etnia, quilombo, quilombola, indígena, comunidade tradicional, originária, índio, étnicoracial, movimento negro and Lei 10.639 (race, racial identity, black people, blackness, ethnicity, ethnic origin, quilombo, quilombola, indigenous people, traditional community, origin, indigenous person, ethnicracial, black movement, and the Law 10,639). Four hundred and fiftytwo papers were found. Gender characteristics in the authorship were explored, as well as the institutional origin and the impact factor of the publications using the H index. The results evidenced a male predominance in the authorship on racial identities, and also showed that the discussion has been mainly developed in the centerwest and southeast of the country.

This paper presents a didactic proposal to be applied in the second cycle of basic education in Chile, in which a feminist geographical perspective is integrated into the approach to some socioenvironmental conflicts in Latin America. This is the result of an investigation focused on the articulation between geography teaching, feminism, and socioenvironmental conflicts in the context of the Chilean curriculum. To achieve this aim, some theoretical discussions are developed around feminist geography, socioenvironmental conflicts, and geographical education. Next, a didactic proposal addressing different socioenvironmental conflicts is presented. Finally, some initial conclusions are shared regarding the potentialities and challenges to be tackled.

This paper aims to outline the phenomenon of violence against women during the Covid19 pandemic in the states of the Brazilian Northern region. The discussion is based on the theoretical contributions of feminist geography and intersectionality, and on the sociohistorical and cultural aspects that help to compose the studied scenario. Bibliographic research was carried out on websites, official bulletins and scientific works, and the results and discussions developed showed lack of information, which denounces the silencing of northern women including its particularities according to space, culture and descriptors of race, class and gender, which were intensified by the changes resulting from the pandemic.
