Gender and social movements were defined to support the analysis of the Movement theoretical categories.

The agenda of the Movement has changed during the period. In the early years, the fight against AIDS and the political organization of LGBT people have centrality in its agenda. However, from the first decade of this century, the struggle for rights and the implementation of public policies for the protection and promotion of human rights of LGBT people now have hegemony on the agenda. It is not, however, a linear and cumulative process, many of the initial questions still remain of the Movement agenda, such as the fight against violence, which is currently expressed through the fight against homophobia.
