Abstract

The general objective of this work was to analyze public policies regarding the training, access and permanence of women in science, technology and innovation in Latin America. This is a qualitative and descriptive study, delineated by documentary research, aiming at understanding the characteristics of the studied phenomenon. Content analysis was used as a method and categorical analysis as a technique. The results indicate that the measures developed by Latin American countries follow three axes: encouraging training in science, technology, engineering and mathematics, since the earliest childhood stages; access and permanence in power positions and scientific careers; inclusion of the ‘gender’ perspective in research and innovation contente.
