NHAMPOCA, Ezra Chambal. Education and women's rights in the time of pandemia in Mozambique. R. Educ. Públ. [online]. 2021, vol.30, e11848.  Epub Aug 04, 2021. ISSN 2238-2097.  https://doi.org/10.29286/rep.v30ijan/dez.11848.

In this text I discuss some aspects of education and women's rights in Mozambique, in times of pandemic, with a focus on higher education, as a university teacher and having lived experiences that raised reflections on gender discrimination, especially in the first half of 2020 period that included the suspension of face-to-face classes and the beginning of distance classes, as well as the governmental appeal of stay at home! To develop this discussion, I resorted to informal conversations with four teachers, two women and two men and with four students, two female and two male. I also used my experience within the university space. The discussion showed that in general, women have not been able to fully enjoy their rights, including those of access to education, and that this has worsened during the pandemic, even within the university
