• Abstract:

  The deconstruction of preconceived concepts and social practices is not an easy task; For this reason, it is necessary to raise the importance of addressing issues that help to question the structures that exist without justification. Hence the relevance of studying the issue of intersectionality from addressing the diversity of identities that have historically been invisible.

  If one starts from the premise that education must be inclusive and the relationship that is kept with educational practice at a higher level, the regulatory framework that contemplates said inclusion can be found, taking into account what is presented in practice.

  These practices and interpretations are taken as empirical references for the problem under analysis. In general, the identification of inclusion processes in the field of higher education is sought. The methodology has also been permeated by an intersectional approach, from which indicators of sex, age, race or ethnicity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and disability are considered.

  A qualitative methodology will be used to approach the research, based on a critical analysis that takes intersectionality as the instrument to identify whether discrimination, exclusion, invisibility, and inequality prevail at the higher level.
