One of the step up of this agenda was the promulgation of the National Policy for Lesbians, Gays, Bisexuals, Travestis and Transsexuals Health, in 2011, considered an milestone as a result of a long political jorney in the claim for the right to health. The histography of social activism reveals the elaborations and contributions in building public policies and other political processes by social movements. The comprehension of the organization in right to health goal agenda throughout the history of this movement, although undertaken by some authors, still needs to go further, especially in the Brazilian Northeast. The discrimination and violence to which LGBTI+ people are exposed on a daily basis, including in health services, reveal the need for changes in assistance and care practices. Faced with these issues, we understand that the role of social movements is fundamental in the claim for recognition and social justice in human rights to this population. Based on this assertion, we intend to analyze how the right to health agenda was taken up by the LGBTI+ movement in Rio Grande do Norte between the 2010s and 2020s. To achieve our aim, we used the semi-structured interview technique, along the lines of oral history, with LGBTI+ activists in RN. In addition, documentary research was carried out on action plans, records of debates, files of meetings and other archives of historical records related to the LGBTI+ movement in RN. For data analysis, the theoretical-methodological perspective of Hermeneutic-Dialectic Analysis was used. This analyzes corroborate the idea of the right to health as one of the main mobilizing agendas of the movement, with the issue of HIV/aids as a fundamental articulating element, but one that produces contradictions. Furthermore, there is an advancement of agendas associated much more with the increased power of social movements than with the initiative of governments themselves, even though channels of dialogue may be favored in governments of progressist characteristics. The three main moments or cycles that overlap in the link of right to health agenda by the LGBTI+ movement are the struggle for depathologization, the HIV/aids epidemic and the rise of the agenda of the transgender and travesti population.Acesso AbertoPessoas LGBTQIA+Equidade social e em saúdeDireito à saúdeDireitos humanosHistória da saúde públicamasterThesisCNPQ::CIENCIAS DA SAUDE::SAUDE COLETIVA
