This paper presents an inclusive didactic proposal aimed at students in the third cycle of Primary Education and/or Compulsory Secondary Education. The importance of showing students, from their initial training, the historical role of women scientists and, specifically, the contribution of many women to the understanding and advancement of geology, is exposed. As a method to work on this proposal, the viewing of documentary videos, the reading of biographies of geologists, the discussion of cases and the inquiry by the students on data and images on a group of women scientists and their contributions to geology have been chosen. The selected biographies allow for classroom debate on many aspects to bring geology closer to students and encourage its study inan inclusive context. Finally, a cooperative work is proposed in the form of the realization of a set of posters that collect this information in an organized way and that can be used to carry out an exhibition in the school for Primary Education students. While for Secondary Education students the use of new technologies is proposed, using entries in sciences Blog or social networks controlled by the teacher to publicize the work of each student. This last phase of the work is a means to involve the entire center, both the rest of the students, as well as the teachers, managers and family members, and even to transcend the local sphere and be able to reach people from anywhere in the world by usingnew technologies
