description The study is presented, outlines a social investigation that has just begun on Mexican women, Social Work and the theory of gender as an interpretive framework. The projected study aims to account at the time, on the double position of women social workers in Mexico, as recipients of possible social programs that utopianly alleviate their vulnerability and as well, as professionals in a helping profession that involves their collaboration in personal-social development of users of their services. The approach presents several premises. First, the social work has been generated and developed mainly by women. Second, the feminization of the profession linked to the socialization of gender in actions such as aid and endless working hours, which while invisible, are not valued, are not paid for and culturally continue to be attributed to women within patriarchal structures. Third, the individual - professional positions of women social workers, and their readings regarding their professional practice. The epistemological distances between the theory and practice of Social Work are discussed too. Likewise, the antecedents that guided the design of the research are presented, followed by the basic methodological aspects by which the study will be conducted. Emphasis is placed on the beginnings of field work carried out at the beginning of 2020, and which have been paused due to the outbreak of the COVID 19 pandemic. The first interpretations of the data from the interviews are deepened carried out and the questionnaires applied as a pilot test. The axis that was investigated was called Self-Image. Woman-Social Worker, his objective was to explore ideological, professional and gender positions, from where Social Work services are intervened or managed. Some of the data generated and its incipient analyzes are presented. It concludes with reflections on the reproduction of gender inequalities also in the profession of Social Work, eminently made up of women.

El estudio que se presenta, esboza un protocolo de investigación que recién inicia sobre mujeres mexicanas, Trabajo Social y la teoría de género como marco interpretativo central. La investigación pretende explicar la doble posición de las mujeres trabajadoras sociales en México, por un lado, en su condición de mujeres en el contexto económico mexicano de subdesarrollo, como receptoras de posibles programas sociales que utópicamente palien su vulnerabilidad; y por el otro, como profesionales en una profesión de ayuda que supone su colaboración en pro del desarrollo personal-social de usuarias/os de sus servicios. El planteamiento presenta varias premisas. Primero, el Trabajo Social generado y desarrollado principalmente por mujeres. Segundo, la feminización de la profesión vinculada a la socialización de género en acciones como la ayuda y las interminables jornadas de trabajo que, en tanto invisibilizadas, no se valoran, ni se retribuyen y culturalmente siguen siendo atribuidas a la mujer dentro de estructuras patriarcales. Tercero, las posiciones individuales – profesionales de mujeres trabajadoras sociales, y sus lecturas respecto de su ejercicio profesional. Se discute sobre las distancias epistemológicas entre la teoría y la práctica del Trabajo Social. Se presentan así mismo, los antecedentes que dieron pauta al diseño de la investigación, seguido de los aspectos metodológicos básicos por los que se conducirá el estudio. Se enfatiza sobre la apertura del trabajo de campo llevado a cabo a inicio del año 2020, y que se dejó en pausa debido al brote de la pandemia por COVID 19. Se profundiza también en las primeras interpretaciones sobre los datos arrojados por las entrevistas realizadas y los cuestionarios aplicados como prueba piloto a Trabajadoras Sociales. El eje que se indagó en dicha fase se denominó Autoimagen. Mujer-Trabajadora Social, su objetivo fue explorar en las posturas ideológico, profesionales y de género desde donde se interviene o gestionan los servicios de Trabajo Social.  Se presentan algunos de los datos generados y sus incipientes análisis. Se concluye con reflexiones sobre la reproducción de las desigualdades de género en la misma profesión de Trabajo Social, eminentemente hecha mujeres.
