Resumen
Space in Chuuk is differently experienced by women and men. Gender appears as an unavoidable criterion for defining tbe restrictions and the zoning of the space in Chuuk. This 'genderization' of the space is mostly issued from the sex segregation and the strong restrictions that shape the sister-brother relationship characteristic of Micronesian societies.
Our intention is to have a better understanding of the relation between the genders and the spaces to which they are allowed or forbidden. The first step is to map the accessibility and mobility that men and women enjoy or lack. For this, we consider that the combination of time geography and anthropology is the most suitable method to visualize the management
of this gendered space.
