SUMMARY:

The gender is one of the factors associated with Food Insecurity (FI). Although people in gender minority groups are exposed to potential risk factors for FI, we do not have large-scale data on these groups. This is due to the way gender is classified in population surveys (i.e., male and female), leaving transgender populations “hidden” in a binary classification. In this thesis, we propose to explore the relationships between minority gender experiences and vulnerability to FI. In this way, we investigated the nexus between transgender experiences and the impact on dietary outcomes and verified the association of social, economic and prejudice factors with AI in a group of transgender people. We conclude that excluding gender diversity in research on food insecurity has possibly failed to reveal important demands for the transgender population. In this thesis, we present the relationships understood so far between AI in the transgender population, as well as possible challenges and alternative strategies for overcoming them. We hope that in doing so, we can guide food and nutrition policies and surveillance systems, as well as researchers around the world, to understand the hidden diversity in AI studies.
