In view of this, the present research had as general objective to elaborate a curricular component on health care of the LGBT population in a graduation course in Medicine. For that, an action research was carried out next to the medical course of the Multicampi School of Medical Sciences of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte. The research comprised the following steps: a) exploratory phase; B) placement of problems or needs; C) theorizing; D) seminars; E) data collection; F) action plan; And g) internal and external disclosure. As a result of this study, a proposal was made for the inclusion of a curricular component called "Health Care of the LGBT Population", with a 45-hour workload, in the pedagogical project of the medical course of the institution-scenario of this research. In addition, a Pre-congress Workshop was submitted and approved on the same theme to be held at the 55th Brazilian Congress of Medical Education. Thus, it can be concluded that the inclusion of the subject matter of this study is of fundamental importance for the training of physicians with a generalist profile, according to the National Curricular Guidelines for undergraduate medical courses.Acesso AbertoPessoas transgêneroServiços de saúdeTravestismoEducação médicaMinorias sexuaismasterThesisCNPQ::CIENCIAS DA SAUDE:
