Sumario:This article is a development of the doctoral thesis "Feminisms in the South: Possibilities and challenges for teacher education and Science Education". It analyzes how Science Education perpetuates hegemonic patterns and highlights the importance of modifying them. Using the action research approach in a Gender in Science Teacher Education course, the study examines discussions to identify counter-hegemonic perspectives. A possible approach based on Global South feminisms is highlighted, which not only promote gender equality but also combat other forms of oppression. The results emphasize the need for a feminist, intersectional, and decolonial approach in teacher education to address social and educational challenges, and the importance of addressing socioeconomic inequalities, gender identities, and sexuality to create inclusive and safe school environments. Classroom discussions challenged established patterns, stimulating reflections on patriarchy, sexism, and gender violence.
