It was a descriptive cross-sectional study with a quantitative approach involving 147 students. Sociodemographic variables were explored through a data sheet designed for this study and the "Modern Homophobia Scale (MHS-G)" was applied by Raja and Stokes (1998), validated in Colombia by Rodríguez et al. (2013). In a larger percentage of the student population it is shown that there are no homophobic attitudes towards gays and lesbians but as relevant results were obtained that among the dimensions included in the instrument to define homophobic and lesbophobic attitudes, it was identified that "personal discomfort and institutional homophobia" are the most representative among the students. The women participating in the study turned out to be more lesbophobic than the men. The majority of self-defined heterosexual students show an ‘Indifferent Attitude’ towards homophobia. A finding of this study is the high percentage of students with ‘Attitude indifferent’ to homophobia oriented to both gays and lesbians.

The Human Development Bond (BDH) is a program that is part of conditional cash transfer programs (CCT) whose main objective is to help reduce poverty through the strengthening of human capital invested in education and health, however this program it does not analyze the autonomy of beneficiary women or mothers, but on the contrary, it fosters and makes invisible the role of women's care work, a discussion that is focused on the ideas of the theory of care. Furthermore, CCTs are programs focused on children. and adolescents, which is why evaluations have naturally focused on their impact on them, leaving aside aspects of relationships within the home between mothers and children, and between spouses, as well as between households and authorities that administer the program. The work aims to identify specific aspects generated in the autonomy of women, their relationship with care work and the public policy behind the BDH program, for which fifteen in-depth interviews were conducted distributed among six beneficiaries, six women no beneficiaries and three technicians from the Ministry of Economic and Social Inclusion related to the program.

From this, it can be concluded that perceived social support to the socioemotional well-being of informal recyclers, and allows them to confront their situation of vulnerability, although it does not imply a minimization of their vulnerability.
