A socio-bibliometric analysis was carried out to determine consumption indicators and a content analysis to identify the lines of research in this field.

However, it is in the last five years that this production has shown a consolidated and consolidated field, in which the visibility of educational institutions from the official sector stands out, and which leverage the development of research in this field in the country. The milestones in gender processes in Colombia have a long history, but the dynamics of academic production in this field are a recent development.
