Description:
The late improvements in policies for care of people with disabilities in Brazil have drawn near many different fields of knowledge. Professionals of diverse areas (architecture, engineering and laws, for example) joined the discussion enriching the education field, but also raising questions about their practice. Taking into account the idea that education is a social right and accessibility is a constitutional right, this study sought to identify the interphase and to raise reflections for the effective school inclusion. The research was conducted in libraries and on the internet, through governmental and educational websites. The found documents, laws, decrees, norms, articles, dissertations and theses were all systemized in order to support the discussion. We have concluded that the conquer of that constitutional right, as a tool for the effective social right (in this case, education), is a process that requires active participation of educational institutions – mainly higher education institutions, which are responsible for the education of professionals who deal with the matter, either directly or indirectly.
