EDUCATION IN GENDER AND SEXUAL DIVERSITY TO PROMOTE GENDER EQUALITY: THE CONQUEST OF BLACK CITIZENSHIP

The creation of legislation and jurisprudence for the protection of gender and sexual diversity relations has made progress in recent decades. However, despite the subject of some debates, there is still a deeper lack of knowledge about the theme, as well as the importance of discussing it in the educational field, since it is also a space of recognition/respect for differences, construction of identities and, above all, preparation for citizenship. Therefore, the social justification of a research on the subject is related to bringing the visibility on the subject, as well as to approach Education in Gender and Sexual Diversity in the promotion of gender equality, especially to the black population. For this, we used exploratory and bibliographic research, based on legislation and the doctrine of the mother country and international, as well as official and unofficial sites.
