SILVA, Wanderson Vilton Nunes da  e  GUARESCHI, Neuza. Intersectionality and Public Policies: Some Shifts from Brazilian Psychologies. Psicol. cienc. prof. [online]. 2025, vol.45, n.spe2, e298286.  Epub 14-Nov-2025. ISSN 1414-9893.  https://doi.org/10.1590/1982-3703003298286.

This study aims to problematize psychology in Brazilian public policies based on intersectional studies. We will consider the historical trajectory of psychology in the country and the construction of social movements within this field of knowledge, underlining the action of Black women and their importance in consolidating intersectionality as a fundamental concept for psychology in public policies. To achieve our aim, we analyzed the concept from a genealogical perspective, considering the history of the concept and this scientific field and public policies in Brazil. The main considerations refer to the historical relevance of this concept and the work of Black women to consolidate Brazilian democracy and to construct knowledge in psychology, as well as some historical risks of neoliberalism for intervention in social markers.
