Abstract

This study addresses the Goiânia Deaf Association (GDA) and its contributions to the formation and insertion of deaf individuals in the labor world. This dissertation is part of the Organization and Memories of Pedagogical Spaces in Professional and Technological Education (PTE) research line and is the conclusion of the Master's Program in Professional and Technological Education (ProfEPT). The main objective of this research was to understand the historical and social process that led to the creation and consolidation of the Goiânia Deaf Association, as well as its impact on the training of deaf people and facilitating their insertion into the labor world. The methodology used in this study is qualitative, based on bibliographical research, documental analysis and fieldwork. To collect the necessary data, we used documents and conducted interviews, the information from which was analyzed through data triangulation. The relevance of the research comes from the professional experiences lived with deaf people in the classroom, with the aim of contributing to scientific research in the field of Deaf Education in Goiás, reviving the trajectory of the creation and consolidation of the Goiânia Deaf Association (ASG) and its contribution to the insertion of deaf people in the world of work. Furthermore, we identified the presence of social and linguistic barriers that hinder the effective inclusion of deaf people in the labor world due to prejudices related to deafness and the lack of adequate training which understands the emancipatory aspects of an omnilateral education.
