ABSTRACT
This text seeks to recover aspects of the trajectory of the Observatório de Gênero e Diversidade (“Gender and Diversity Observatory”) of the Federal University of Pelotas (UFPel), from its foundation in 2014 until the end of 2016. It highlights its main actions, seeking to raise a reflection on the walk carried out so far, identifying and problematizing its advances and its limits. In this writing, initially, I will problematize the difficult relation between feminist science and school education. In a second moment, a critique of hegemonic rationality is made, based on the work of Boaventura Santos, pointing to what the author has called ecology of knowledge, and incorporating the experience of the Observatório in this perspective. Finally, I will present some initiatives carried out by the Observatory during the mentioned period, considering the inseparability of teaching, research and academic extension.
