Social inclusion and the human promotion of disabled people in mainstream schools

Abstract

When we refer to a person with a disability, be it a child, a young person, an adult or an elderly person, we are reminded of the challenges she faces in order to reach her spaces, guarantee respect and overcome limits and difficulties. Speaking in Human Promotion and Social Inclusion reminds us of the social exclusion that exists in these people's lives. This qualitative study of interpretive character is a bibliographical and field research whose main objective is to analyze if the social inclusion and the human promotion of people with disabilities are adequate in the regular schools. The methodology used refers, in addition to bibliographical and documentary research, to semi-structured interviews with school directors of the Caçador Region (SC). The present study pointed out ways that Brazil has a large number of people with disabilities, and many of these are inserted in school spaces, but not always included, because there is a difficult acceptance, which brings with it a situation that destabilizes managers, teachers, classmates and families.
