- Abstract
Objective: To analyze scientific publications related to gender diversity in old age in Latin America through a literature search to identify objectives, conclusions, and approach methodologies, as well as those aspects that may generate interest for the development of research on the subject. Methodology: The literature search included the databases of EBSCO, the Cochrane Library, and PubMed. In addition, publications that explicitly focus on the elderly population and gender diversity were considered, including those that present relevant results on these topics conducted in the Latin American context from January 2012 to December 2022. Results: There were 86 articles, of which 11 were part of the final sample. Most of the publications were from Brazil, with a predominance of qualitative methodologies in the case of original articles. It was identified different aspects related to intersectionality and the theme of the study. Conclusions: It is necessary to approach the issue in the Latin American context, to generate public policies on old age, which recognize older persons belonging to sexual dissident groups.
