“We were always here” expresses the simultaneously decisive and subtle presence of women, girls, and boys in cultural management. Reflecting on the role of this discipline in social transformation compels us to ask: Where are women and children? What challenges do they face in the struggle for recognition as cultural agents? And what are the paths to recognizing their creative and transformative potential? The reflections shared in this book reveal the challenges these social groups face in this field, but also the potential that cultural management possesses to promote the exercise of the cultural rights of women and children when the conditions that still restrict their full participation are made visible and addressed. This work presents the landscape as a field of dispute over the legitimacy of positions and knowledge for naming and recognizing oneself as a cultural manager, but also as a universe of creative, pedagogical, and transformative possibilities.
