Introduction

The International Symposium (Re)Inventing Leaderships: Gender, Education and Power aims to establish itself as a space for reflection and plural analysis of emerging leaderships.

Critically questioning the challenges imposed by a social climate adverse to the hegemonic and supposedly universal vision of leadership, the different social actors are invited to discover and reinvent ways of being in leadership.
