This article addresses the State of the Art of educational public policies that support gender issues in Brazil. It is a research in progress developed in the Graduate Program in Teaching of Sciences and Humanities (PPGECH) under the Federal University of Amazonas - UFAM, Humaitá Unit - IEAA. In this section we seek to make a literature review of research on educational policies related to gender issues in Brazil in the last five years. This is a bibliographic research, conducted from the database of journals of the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel - CAPES, with a time frame of five years (2016 to 2021), of qualitative approach, from the descriptors: educational policies and gender; gender and education. The analysis and discussion of the data were inspired by post-critical studies in education, based on authors who move between the fields of "post" prefixes, from Meyer and Paraíso (2012). The results found were grouped into four sections: equality, equity and discrimination; educational plans and other official documents, Sexual diversity, gender ideology and LGBTQ issues; and Women and feminisms. It was noticed that gender issues find a shy space in the public agenda, mainly because of the increased pressure from conservative groups, but that there are advances in practices to promote equity and combat various discriminatory practices.
