Background: Women choose surgery because academic challenges and technical components. With this work we want to establish the real participation of women in the general surgery residency and the professional level in Colombia. Methods: We conducted a survey in academic and surgical training centers, surgical centers in capital cities and in university teaching centers 2020 to establish the percentage of participation of women in residency and employment in general surgery. Results: Women represent 39% of residents in training in general surgery. In the main hospitals, women represent only 9% of work positions. Only 21% of university surgical teaching positions are held by women. Conclusions: Although in our environment the possibility of admission to residency and surgical work has increased for women, based on our results there is still a large participation gap in our country. Mentoring and diversity must continue to end the gender bias in the surgical field.

“…A pesar de esta tendencia y caracterización general en América Latina, existen importantes matices al interior de la región (Marchionni et al, 2019).

En este trabajo se analiza la incidencia de un aumento en las horas escolares de los niños sobre la oferta laboral femenina en República Dominicana. La reciente política de Jornada Escolar Extendida (JEE) duplica las horas escolares en el sistema público dominicano, lo cual podría generar un cambio en las decisiones laborales de los hogares beneficiados. En particular, esta iniciativa relaja las restricciones que enfrentan las mujeres para participar en el mercado de trabajo, teniendo en cuenta que las madres son típicamente las principales encargadas del cuidado de sus hijos. Mediante la aplicación de una metodología no experimental de diferencias en diferencias se compara la evolución en la participación laboral de las madres elegibles (con hijos en escuela pública) y no elegibles (con hijos en escuela privada) por este programa educativo, antes y después del mismo. Los resultados sugieren un aumento significativo en la tasa de actividad femenina, que se focaliza en mujeres cónyuges, de baja educación y pertenecientes a zonas urbanas. Estas estimaciones son robustas frente a diferentes especificaciones que intentan eludir el posible efecto composición (transitorio) entre los grupos de tratamiento y control.
