| Abstract (English): | Introduction: The differential approach, knowing the inequalities in older adults, helps in the evaluation of their conditions and in the design of interventions, research and teaching. Objective: To identify the peculiarities and inequalities related to the generation and sex/gender in the Colombian population of older adults. Methodology: Observational, descriptive and analytical study in which a secondary analysis of the SABE Colombia population survey was carried out. Results and Discussion: We present the results according to the inequality between men and women and by generation; of monetary poverty and mobility, violence and displacement. Economic income. Situation during childhood. Access to public services. Family environment. Health conditions. Conclusion: The disparities are related to representations and practices related to gender and age, less evident in the economic aspect. Actions must be reinforced to improve the living conditions of all and the social conceptions and imaginaries that naturalize the differences, and to avoid new disadvantages due to the healthy achievements of aging.

| Abstract (Spanish): | Introducción: El abordaje diferencial, sabidas las desigualdades e inequidades en los adultos mayores, ayuda en la evaluación de sus condiciones y en el diseño de intervenciones, la investigación y la docencia. Objetivo: Identificar las peculiaridades y las desigualdades relativas a la generación y sexo/género en la población colombiana de personas adultas mayores. Metodología: Estudio observacional, descriptivo y analítico que realizó un análisis secundario de la encuesta poblacional del estudio SABE Colombia. Resultados y discusión: Se exponen los resultados según desigualdad entre hombres y mujeres y por generación; de pobreza monetaria y movilidad, violencia y desplazamiento. Ingresos económicos. Situación durante la infancia. Acceso a servicios públicos. Entorno familiar. Condiciones de salud. Conclusión: Las disparidades están relacionadas con representaciones y prácticas vinculadas al género y a la edad, menos evidentes en lo económico. Deben reforzarse acciones para mejorar las condiciones de vida de todos y las concepciones e imaginarios que naturalizan las diferencias, y para evitar nuevas desventajas por los logros saludables del envejecimiento.
