Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso (Bacharelado em Museologia) - Faculdade de Ciências Sociais, Universidade Federal de Goiás, Goiânia, 2024.http://repositorio.bc.ufg.br//handle/ri/24666The present work aims to analyze how work has been done with ethnographic collections in Brazilian museums, as well as the way indigenous peoples participate in these spaces. Starting from the hypothesis that participative works help in dealing with these objects, we analyzed, by means of the application of a questionnaire, the indigenous participation in five museums: the National Museum, the Emílio Goeldi Museum of Pará, the Archeology and Ethnology Museum of the University of São Paulo, the Indian Museum and the Anthropological Museum of the Federal University of Goiás. To do so, we present the term participation and its meaning in Museology, and the different levels of participation; we address museums and ethnographic collections; and we show different participatory experiences in the researched museums. Finally, it was observed that the museums presented develop activities with the indigenous at all stages of the museum operating chain, at the most diverse levels of participation, contributing to the transformation of the traditional forms of work of these institutions. However, institutional policies based on indigenous rights are still necessary só that the work is not restricted to the actions of certain professionals or specific projects.porAcesso AbertoMuseologiaParticipaçãoPovos indígenasAcervos etnográficosMuseologyParticipationIndigenous peoplesEthnographic collectionsTrabalho de conclusão de curso de graduação (TCCG)
