Planejamento familiar e emancipação das mulheres no Brasil: uma reflexão sob as lentes da psicologia feminista

Unequal gender relations still make women responsible for caring for the home, the family, and even family planning. Although such relationships permeate all women, inequality also manifests between them because of the intersectional constitution of identities and the inseparability between gender, race, and class violence. Therefore, this study aims to promote a reflection on family planning and women's access to emancipation processes in the Brazilian context, focusing on the contributions of Feminist Psychology and intersectional perspectives. Based on this, the present work consists of a narrative literature review that considers both nationally produced scientific articles and publications on government websites that help in understanding the theme.

Dessa maneira, esse estudo tem como objetivo promover uma reflexão acerca do planejamento familiar e o acesso das mulheres aos processos de emancipação no contexto brasileiro, privilegiando as contribuições da Psicologia Feminista e das perspectivas interseccionais.
