Abstract

In this dialogue, between a social researcher and the president of a development society that is part of the Playas del Sur Community Network in the city of Mar del Plata (Buenos Aires province, Argentina), the way in which social organizations are articulated through community networks to work on territorial problems such as drinking water, health, food, gender violence and transportation is addressed. Popular feminism, collective work, the role of women and patriarchal violence are the main axes of the conversation held by the protagonists in 2023.
