SUMMARY:
The city is understood as a particular way of organizing the natural space, it attracts and brings together
individuals, it builds not only spatial interventions, but mainly specific and complex forms of sociability.
The urban is established in a dialogical relationship between what is constructed and what is experienced,
based on the appropriation of its users and, consequently, contextualizes the subjectivation processes
present in them. In this scenario, some categories can serve as a lens for analyzing the city. One that
stands out is the category of gender, precisely because it contains the social frameworks that define the
differences between men and women, as well as for denouncing an unequal and hierarchical relationship
of power. The organization of urban space does not escape the imperatives produced in dichotomous
gender relations, the city is also a means to reproduce these differences. In this context, urban mobility
becomes a catalyst for these aspects, being able to limit, segregate or prevent the movement of some
social groups in the city. Considering the magnitude of the studies that have urban mobility as their field
of investigation, methodologically we propose a cut and we will analyze the urban mobility specifically
of university women, regularly enrolled in face-to-face courses. We consider higher education as a
disputed space, in which circulation around the city is a necessity and is associated with the question of
access and permanence of these students. Thus, we aim to analyze the urban mobility of university
women and its effects on access to and permanence in higher education, using an intersectional
perspective, in an attempt to understand the relationship between mobility and the permanence or
evasion of women in higher education. The research was carried out in the city of Natal/RN, with women
aged 18 or over, regularly enrolled in a Higher Education Institution in the city. As research tools, we
used an electronic questionnaire as a first approximation of the target audience and, in a second moment,
a Focus Group was carried out that had the use of the photovoice method as a guiding element. As
analyzed results, we highlight the importance of urban mobility for students, the data produced reinforce
the idea that mobility is a conditioning factor in access and permanence in higher education.
