192 TEHIC Towards a European Heritage Interpretation Curriculum 7.4.5. Herstóricas trails, tours, and workshops Brief description This is a cultural and educational project where trails, guided tours and/or workshops are developed, focused on the role of women in history (thematic), from a feminist point of view. All activities organised by Herstóricas also reflect the absence of women’s contributions to society according to official history. These activities follow the criteria of heritage interpretation, since they present female references in a dynamic and interactive manner, defying gender stereotypes and the role attributed to women by the patriarchal system. In their activities, Herstóricas promote participation, debate, and critical thinking. They also conduct interpretive visits to museums and community projects, all of which enhance the role played by women, in order to recover the history of women, and always from a heritage interpretation perspective. Examples of interpretive trails: · “In search of Granada’s women: community spaces.” · “The Alhambra: an inhabited town” (Granada). · “The Herstóricas of the Civil Cemetery” (Madrid).
