This article analyzes the inclusion of sexual and reproductive rights of trans people in the public policy on women and gender in the municipality of Chiquinquirá. It presents the theoretical changes that the concepts of transsexuality and transgenderism have undergone, as well as the actions of the Colombian legislature regarding the protection of this population group. However, as will be observed, in the absence of specific regulations, the Constitutional Court has assumed responsibility for developing special protections for trans people, in response to the constant violation of fundamental rights that should guarantee free and voluntary access to public health services. This has supported the recognition process concerning the dignity of these individuals but has not been sufficient to overcome the entrenched gaps stemming from a binary profile within government institutions. This has affected the perception of gender identity beyond sexual and genital characteristics, forcing individuals to choose between being male or female under the threat of being denied access to certain medical treatments. To address this, a qualitative descriptive methodology is developed, based on documentary analysis of the inclusive struggle between the sexual and reproductive rights of trans people and the design of gender public policy in Chiquinquirá.
