Factores socioculturales que influyen en la generación de la violencia contra la mujer, en la parroquia El Coca, cantón Francisco de Orellana, provincia de Orellana, año 2025.

Abstract

The general objective of this study is to analyze the potential influence of sociocultural factors on the generation and perpetuation of violence against women in the El Coca parish, based on the perceptions of women who have experienced violence. This study aims to generate input for developing intervention and women's empowerment strategies. To analyze the data collected and address the objectives set, gender theory and social constructivism were used, allowing us to delve deeper into the topic of sociocultural factors in the generation and perpetuation of violence against women. Among the main results, it is possible to demonstrate that gender roles are linked to the expectations that society places on men and women in their behavior and daily responsibilities. From childhood, people are raised under norms that dictate how they should act, feel, and even dress according to their sex. These rules, although not always explicit, are passed down from generation to generation and are part of the culture and traditions of each society.
