In 1974, Hardy left Chile to teach at the School of Psychology of the National Autonomous University of Mexico.[2][6] Later, also in Mexico, between 1982 and 1983, she worked as a researcher for the Center for Social and Economic Studies of the Third World (Ceestem).
At the end of 1983 returned to Chile to work in social affairs. In 1990, she was appointed head of the Department of Social Affairs of the Ministry for Social Development and Planning. Later, she was appointed Executive Secretary of the Chilean government's inter-ministry Social Affairs Committee.[2]
In 1994, she started working for Fundación Chile 21, a socialist think tank founded by the social democrat politician and later president Ricardo Lagos, responsible for the social affairs workshops. In 1996, she was appointed coordinator of the Social Affairs Department, while at the same time, working as an advisor to the Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs.[7]
In 2000, Hardy was appointed Executive Director of Fundación Chile 21, and at the same time, she became part of the advisor committee of the National Women's Service (Sernam). She remained in the position until 2005.[8]
