Well-being with a gender perspective
 
The UNR has a long history of management, extension and welfare policies with a gender perspective. In addition, it is inserted in a city that is a regional and international reference for the history of its thriving movement of women, sexual diversities and feminists and for its ability to influence the institutionalization and formulation of progressive public policies at the local level.
 
The challenges assumed in the current management of the UNR are contained in the UNR Feminist Plan approved by the Superior Council in 2020, which contemplates multiple dimensions and intra-institutional articulations that seek to provide comprehensive responses to priority and urgent demands.
 
The social context of the health emergency brought to the forefront of the public agenda the importance of care policies and having strategies to reconcile domestic-family and work-educational life. In this sense, it is understood that reconciliation and care policies require infrastructure, resources and actions that mitigate or eliminate the reproduction of invisible gender gaps that occur in access to and permanence in the University as a learning and work environment.
 
The Pedagogical Port was created in 1994 and its management was in charge of the Cooperating Association of the Center for Child Development and Family Promotion.

Thus, working together, they direct all their efforts to care for the children of República de la Sexta and, starting this year and for the first time, the university community.
