This research examines the contribution of the Bordadoras de Copiulemu to the cultural heritage of the Biobío region, focusing on the artisans' experiences and their impact on collective identity, historical memory, and gender perspectives within the heritage domain. Employing a qualitative approach that integrates phenomenological and ethnographic methodologies, the study utilized semi-structured interviews and non-participant observations to explore the meanings and experiences these women attribute to their artisanal work. Key findings highlight elements of craftsmanship that reflect rural life and local worldviews. Additionally, the study reveals that their artisanal practices foster both individual and collective empowerment by enabling access to new social participation spaces and affirming their role as key actors in transmitting traditional knowledge. The research concludes that the Bordadoras de Copiulemu are active cultural agents whose practices enhance their autonomy and illuminate women's contributions to cultural heritage, underscoring the importance of integrating a gender perspective in heritage processes.
