At the beginning of the 20th century, a bomb exploded at 2 Rua Helvetia, in downtown São Paulo. This occurred during the 1924 Paulista Revolution, also known as "the revolution that São Paulo forgot": a tenentista uprising harshly suppressed by government-loyal troops. After 23 days of bombardment that primarily affected the civilian population, newspapers celebrated the victory of legality and the crushing of the revolution. A century later, under the justification of maintaining that same legality, many other bombs—both real and symbolic—have exploded over that same territory, impacting the most vulnerable above all.

The 1st Colloquium: Woman, City, and Architecture was held on October 17–18, 2019, in Salvador, Bahia, organized by the LAB20 research group of PPGAU/UFBA and ELAS of FAU/UnB. The event was established with a dual objective: to discuss architecture and urbanism through the experience and contributions of women in the city, and to foster collaboration among researchers who have been exploring this theme from multiple and diverse perspectives.
