The research developed in this work sought to answer the following question: has the relationship between gender equity and the teaching of Mathematics in Basic Education been the focus of investigations in academia? To seek answers, a survey of the main research on the topic was carried out in order to obtain a general overview of what has been addressed. The objective was to establish an overview of the main national research published in dissertation or thesis format, between 2013 and 2023, related to the teaching of Mathematics and the issue of gender in Basic Education. For this, the Systematic Literature Review technique was used, a qualitative research of an exploratory nature, with searches on prestigious online platforms. It was found that the amount of research that met the defined criteria was quite small, highlighting the need to expand the discussion on this topic in academia. Furthermore, the selected research indicates that the use of practices to promote gender equity in Mathematics classes has a positive impact on students' self-esteem and empowerment. As a complement, a guide was created with tips and suggestions to help promote gender equality in Mathematics teaching, aimed at educators who wish to reduce gender disparity in their classes.
