The objective of this work is to characterize the scientific production in Statistical Education in Latin America, based on a sample of articles published. Statistical Education has maintained a sustained growth in the publication of journal articles, books and communications in academic events worldwide and in Latin America. However, no papers were located that describe what this scientific production is like in Latin America. Therefore, this study analyzed 210 articles published by Latin American authors in journals from different countries during the period 2016 - 2021. A content analysis was made from reading the articles to categorize them according to the number of authors, the institution of affirmation, country, type of article, methodology, theoretical references, and topics addressed. The results indicate that most of the articles are empirical studies, written by one or two authors, using qualitative methodology, and supported by various theoretical references; although the most used are linked to literacy, reasoning, or statistical thinking. It is concluded that Statistical Education in Latin America is moving forward to create a space with its own characteristics.
