The text aimed to carry out an analysis of the trajectory of Public Policies directed at the Elderly in Brazil. This article was constructed based on analysis and reflection considering laws, decrees, national and international events, texts or articles concerning the theme under analysis, published in the period 1982 – 2010. It may be noted that in the international ambit, the contributions of the World Assemblies on Ageing are significant for the incorporation of the concept of active ageing into public policies in Brazil. The initiatives of the Commerce Social Service and of the Brazilian Society for Geriatrics and Gerontology, directed at the development of policies for caring for the elderly, stand out in the Brazilian context. It was determined that the capacitation and training in Geriatrics and Gerontology in Brazil are deficient and that Brazilian legislation aimed at the elderly, despite being well structured and advanced, remains incipient in practice.
