Resumo
A referente dissertação de mestrado tem como tema: A Voz das Arquitetas Angolanas: Ângela Mingas uma arquiteta luandense. Trata-se de elaborar um estudo centrado no discurso de algumas figuras relevantes da arquitetura feita em Angola. Portanto, do ponto de vista deste trabalho, é importante compreender o papel das arquitetas africanas, mais propriamente angolanas de forma a entendermos metodologias e pensamentos das mesmas em relação à arquitetura angolana. No entanto, a par de uma breve passagem acerca da história da arquitetura angolana, a referente dissertação, possui como tema contextual Arquitetura e Género, e por esta razão, esta investigação debruçar-se sobre as questões do feminismo africano, ou seja, de maneira a compreender a presença das mulheres africanas, e arquitetas em torno das questões de género, pois são longos os tempos em que as mulheres eram impossibilitadas de atuar no palco social, económico, político e mais especificamente o arquitetónico. Não obstante, devido ao facto de sentir uma ausência no âmbito da investigação e académico, de pensamentos e posicionamentos das arquitetas africanas e angolanas, o objetivo desta dissertação passa por redigir uma monografia acerca da arquiteta angolana conceituada denominada Ângela Mingas sob a perspetiva do estudo de género. Mingas, porque aparece como um elemento crucial da arquitetura angolana, fundadora e coordenadora da Escola de Arquitetura e do Núcleo de Estudo de Arte, Arquitetura, Urbanismo e Design da Universidade Lusíada de Angola. E também, por ser uma impulsionadora da cultura de valorização do património angolano, que na sua maioria concentra na mãe capital (Luanda), vestígios de toda uma história. No entanto, são apresentados também discursos consolidados acerca da arquitetura e do ensino em Angola. Tais discursos proferidos pelas arquitetas Isabel Martins, Cristina Câmara, e Paula Nascimento, arquitetas que enquadram-se no contexto angolano, e são um contributo para maior visibilidade da arquitetura em Angola. É esperado que este trabalho possa servir como um fio condutor e investigativo de forma a possibilitar debates cuidados em torno das questões de género no continente africano e em Angola, contribuindo assim, para a divulgação e valorização da mulher arquiteta africana.

The following Master’s thesis has as a main analysis of: The Voice of the Angolan Architects: Angêla Mingas a luandense architect. This is an elaborated study based on the speech of some the most relevant personalities of the Architecture done in Angola. Therefore, from this works point of view, it is important to understand the role of African architecture, mostly Angolan so we are able to understand methodologies and thoughts of the same regarding to Angolan architecture. However, a brief passage concerning the history of Angolan architecture, the following thesis has Architecture and Gender as the main theme and for that reason, this investigation will focus on questions about african feminism or in other words to understand the presence of african women and architecture around gender issues. Because, long have been the years where women were unable of acting in the social, economic, political field and specially the architectonic side. Nevertheless, due to the fact of feeling a lack of investigation and academic thoughts regarding the positioning of the African and Angolan architects. The main objective of this dissertation goes through to write about the well respected Angolan architect Ângela Mingas about the perspective of the gender study. It is Mingas because, she comes as an important element in the Angolan architecture, she’s also the founder of the School of Architecture, Arts, Urban & Design Studies for the University of Lusiada of Angola. And also, for being a great pusher of the culture and the appreciation of the National Angolan Heritage, which are mainly based in the capital (Luanda), traces of history. Meanwhile, I´ll introduce specific speeches about architecture and the Angolan teaching. Such speeches from the well-known Isabel Martins, Cristina Câmara and Paula Nascimento, who are architects that fit into the Angolan architecture. With this, it is expected that this dissertation may serve as a trigger to make possible investigations and also discussions around gender issues in Africa and Angola, in order to contribute to the dissemination and valorisation of African architect women.
