This article seeks to examine what happens to women's studies and gender with respect to the challenges facing educational institutions in their participation in the production of knowledge on women and gender relations to highlight the importance of generating institutional actions on the own dynamics that reproduce power relations within the educational spaces. The analysis includes the results of qualitative research with academic women and members of gender units in some Mexican universities.
