Abstract

The article aims to problematize the situation of women with disabilities in the State of Chile, making visible the absence of a gender approach in public policies on disability, which supports the dominant representations of the problem. As a counterpart, the activism and agency of women with disabilities emerges to subvert the situation of invisibility and advance the national public incidence.
