Abstract
Este proyecto presenta la artesanía, específicamente la creación de máscaras de vejigantes, como una herramienta educativa y de transformación social para cuestionar el machismo y las estructuras patriarcales en Puerto Rico. Las máscaras de vejigantes se han convertido en un símbolo importante en la cultura puertorriqueña y es el eje central de este proyecto en el que el concepto principal es la creación de talleres participativos que fomenten la reflexión sobre los roles de género y la equidad, utilizando la misma, como medio para fomentar el diálogo, la concienciación y el empoderamiento comunitario. La segunda parte del proyecto consta de una plataforma digital interactiva que documenta la obra artesanal del gestor de este proyecto, ampliando su alcance educativo, cultural y social. Además, esta plataforma servirá como página digital para dar a conocer los diferentes servicios que este proyecto ofrece como: lugares de venta, trayectoria, productos culturales y próximos eventos.
