"Integración de la Perspectiva de Género en la Formación Militar: Implementación e Impacto en la Escuela Técnica de la Fuerza Aérea Ecuatoriana"

Abstract

This study analyzes the implementation of gender perspective in military training at the Technical School of the Ecuadorian Air Force (ETFA). It employs a quantitative and descriptive approach, using surveys applied to students, teachers, and instructors to assess perceptions of gender equity within the institution. The findings reveal regulatory advancements but also cultural and organizational barriers that hinder effective implementation. Cultural resistance and lack of gender training are the main obstacles identified. Although efforts have been made to integrate gender equity into the curriculum, its implementation remains partial and uneven. The study concludes that strengthening awareness and training strategies in gender equality is essential to consolidate an equitable educational environment, promote inclusive leadership, and ensure military training aligned with human rights principles.
