DE SANTACRUZ, Cecilia et al. Inequalities between Women and Men Aged Over and Under Seventy Years. SABE Colombia – Survey on Health, Well-being and Aging 2015. Univ. Med. [online]. 2019, vol.60, n.3, pp.20-33. ISSN 0041-9095. https://doi.org/10.11144/javeriana.umed60-3.sabe.
Introduction:
The differential approach, knowing the inequalities in older adults, helps in the evaluation of their conditions and in the design of interventions, research and teaching.
Objective:
To identify the peculiarities and inequalities related to the generation and sex/gender in the Colombian population of older adults.
Methodology:
Observational, descriptive and analytical study in which a secondary analysis of the SABE Colombia population survey was carried out.
Results and Discussion:
We present the results according to the inequality between men and women and by generation; of monetary poverty and mobility, violence and displacement. Economic income. Situation during childhood. Access to public services. Family environment. Health conditions.
Conclusion:
The disparities are related to representations and practices related to gender and age, less evident in the economic aspect. Actions must be reinforced to improve the living conditions of all and the social conceptions and imaginaries that naturalize the differences, and to avoid new disadvantages due to the healthy achievements of aging.
