A qualificação da investigação criminal no Rio Grande do Norte: fatores determinantes para a elucidação dos homicídios
(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2026-03-16) Nunes Neto, Licurgo; Bevilacqua, Solon; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4706313748524604; Bevilacqua, Solon; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4706313748524604; Pagliaro, Heitor de Carvalho; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7702958081106244; Moura, Rafael Soares Duarte de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8471140718706716
The protection of the fundamental right to life calls for the fulfillment of positive obligations by the State, wherein criminal investigation is no longer a mere bureaucratic routine, but becomes a vital tool for the realization of human rights. From the standpoint of the conventional duty of due diligence, this thesis aims to analyze which acts, procedures and techniques are more closely associated with success in solving homicides in the State of Rio Grande do Norte, considering criminal prosecution as an effective guarantee of access to justice, redress for victims and the protection of human dignity. To this effect, this research has taken a mixed methodological approach bringing together documentary research and comparative statistical analysis from a stratified sample made up of 176 police inquiries involving consummated intentional homicides (86 solved and 86 unsolved) instituted between 2021 and 2025 in ten municipalities of the State of Rio Grande do Norte showing high death rates. The collection procedure was made by using a standardized analytical form for converting procedural narratives into structured data, which have been tested for correlation and cross-tabulation. This study has also comprised an analysis of court precedents by the Inter-American Court of Human Rights as a regulatory basis for establishing the duty to investigate and interpret the empirical findings. The results show that the traditional investigation model - based on testimonial evidence and bureaucratic recordkeeping -, has a residual efficacy with a clearance rate of only 35%. On the other hand, the use of qualified technological resources, such as cross-checking data, breach of telematic confidentiality and geolocation analysis, raises the probability of success to 66%. It has also become plain that proactive measures of search and seizure are closely associated with the cases of successful investigation. As far as the forensic framework is concerned, the research showed that the implantation of the National Ballistic Analysis System was crucial to identify ballistic connections between cases and revealing serial murder patterns. From an institutional perspective, the specialized units outperformed general police stations in solving cases. In conclusion, the merely testimonial model falls short of meeting the conventional obligation of due diligence. Overcoming impunity and the ensuing protection of the right to life depend on transitioning to an investigative rationale grounded in a triad of analytical technology, functional specialization, and proactive policing.

Direito ao saneamento básico: efeitos da lei nº 14.026/2020 sobre os direitos humanos
(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2022-06-01) Souza, Álvaro Gusmão de; Tibiriçá, Luciana Gonçalves; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5363836341109161; Tibiriçá, Luciana Gonçalves; Feitosa, Maria Luiza Pereira de Alencar Mayer; Araújo, José Vicente Granato de
The right to sanitation is questioned following human rights perspective, from analysis of the main innovations promoted by the 14.026/2020 brazilian law and its effects for human rights. By assuming sanitation as a human right, this work has extracted regulations and fundamental principles contents from UNO documents, allowing to evaluate its correspondences – omissions or restrictions – in the text of the 14.046/2020 law, intending to highlight possible dangers that could compromise the fulfillment of the law in Brazil. This paper aim to investigate, using case studies, the hypothesis that the new legislation, by prioritizing private services in the State of Goiás, jeopardizes human sanitation rights in the means that its rationality reduces or denies, beyond the effectiveness of cross subsidization, the normative force of non-discrimination, substantive equality, participation and information access principles, as well os its minimal contents of availability, quality, accessibility and acceptability. The purpose is to consolidate the idea of sanitation as human rights and with that provide foundation and instrument to interpretate and properly enforce the 14.026/2020 brazilian law.
Da naturalização normativa às contribuições do Protocolo para Julgamento com Perspectiva de Gênero na resolução dos conflitos familiares: uma análise a partir do Banco de Sentenças e Decisões do CNJ
(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2025-12-09) Cantidio, Thalita Igraine; Corrêa, Edwiges Conceição Carvalho; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8128417861243933; Corrêa, Edwiges Conceição Carvalho; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8128417861243933; Arbués, Margareth Pereira; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8826668985459839; Pavani, Daniela Borges; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1878688743763378
The dissertation analyzes the application of the Protocol for Judging with a Gender Perspective (2021), issued by the National Council of Justice (CNJ) and derived from the Inter-American Human Rights System, in judicial decisions arising from family conflicts. The scope was defined within Family Law, based on the identification that there is a legislative naturalization that still denies, despite the constitutionalization of rights, the experiences of women in intrafamilial relationships. The objective was to identify whether the Protocol addresses these naturalizations and provides contributions for women in the resolution of judicialized intrafamilial conflicts. This is a documentary research study in which judicial decisions extracted from the CNJ’s decision database were analyzed. The theoretical framework used for interpreting the data reflects an interdisciplinary approach between Law and normative philosophy, especially between political theory and theories of justice (universalism). The technique used for observing the documents (excerpts from decisions) was content analysis, through a qualitative approach. The results suggest that the Protocol contributes to addressing gender inequalities in judicialized intrafamilial relationships, since interpretive paradigms other than traditional ones have been used as interpretive vectors in judicial decisions, which tends to represent an “expansion of the public sphere” and the deployment of the normative criterion of “participatory parity,” conceived by strands of feminist theory as a means of reducing inequalities. However, the study also identified the need for legislative changes to ensure greater legal certainty for the gender perspective.
Posso eu escrever? Cartas narrativas a partir das vivências institucionais de uma mulher negra no Tribunal de Justiça de Goiás
(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2026-02-26) Oliveira, Carolina Cássia Silva; Machado, Maria Izabel; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5727858375243141; Silva, Elson Santos; Oliveira, Sheila Santos de; Carvalho, Thais Regina de
This dissertation is written from an autoethnographic perspective, an encounter between lived experience and analysis, inspired by the concept of "escrevivência" (a blend of written and lived experiences) formulated by Conceição Evaristo, here adopted as research methods and as an ethical-political choice for knowledge production. It is a situated writing, in which the researcher's trajectory as a Black woman, mother, and social worker constitutes the analytical empirical material of the research, composed of institutional experiences accumulated over a decade of work at the Court of Justice of Goiás. From this perspective, writing is not limited to narrating lived experience, but operates as a mode of analysis, through the reflective systematization of experiences, guided by an intersectional approach that articulates race, gender, and class. By adopting autoethnography, this research establishes a dialogue with "escrevivência," recognizing its contributions in the field of qualitative methodologies, without this implying epistemological subordination. In this work, I explore how the personal and professional experiences of Black women social workers, members of the Regional Mobile Interprofessional Teams (EIFs) of the Court of Justice of the State of Goiás (TJGO), are permeated by the gender, race, and class asymmetries present in the institution. I also reflect on the possibilities and/or impossibilities of incorporating an intersectional analysis into forensic professional practices, and the potential of collectively constructing ethnic-racial issues in our experiences within the TJGO institution, its relationship with institutional racism, and its impact on our mental health.
A Intersecção Entre Cinema E Direitos Humanos: Desafios E Potencialidades
(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2025-12-23) Daniel, Sâmmarah Patricia da Silva; Lima Filho, Manuel Ferreira; http://lattes.cnpq.br/9114125597206149; Lima, Angelita Pereira De; Carvalho, Adelino Adilson De
This research aims to reflect upon and discuss cinema and Human Rights, proposing an examination of the relationship between these two fields and understanding cinema as a tool capable of promoting, questioning, and catalyzing discussions on fundamental rights. Its central objective is to understand cinema as a medium of awareness-raising and the promotion of Human Rights. The analysis focuses on cinema as a form of representation of society and its diverse relations, showing how it can be used both to denounce violations of these rights and to serve as a device for sensitizing society in the face of such violations. Furthermore, we examine how cinematographic works contribute to the construction of a culture of human rights and how cinema can be understood not only as an art form, but also as a means of mobilizing society in favor of strengthening human rights in their ongoing struggle.
A precarização institucional das DEAMS do Estado do Maranhão e o adoecimento político da/o policial: "uma máquina de moer gente"
(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2026-03-13) Moraes, Marilia Vasconcelos de; Lima , Ricardo Barbosa de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3943209743451118; Silva , Sullyvan Garcia da; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2887155346566309; Silva, Sullyvan Garcia da; Carvalho, Thaís Regina de; Vieira, Ana Paula de Toledo
This research, titled "The Institutional Precarity of DEAMs in the State of Maranhão and the Political Illness of Police Officers: ‘a machine for grinding people’" analyzes the complex relationship between the work carried out in Specialized Women's Police Stations (DEAMs) and the mental health of public safety professionals. The central objective is to relate the work of civil police officers in the state of Maranhão to the psychosocial and professional impacts resulting from continuous exposure to gender violence and the dynamics of institutional violence. The research is based on the contradiction that, although DEAMs are spaces for protection, they impose a high emotional cost on police officers and can reproduce practices of negligence and gender hierarchies. The theoretical framework is interdisciplinary, articulating Dejours' (2021) Psychodynamics of Work, deepening the analysis of ethical and pathogenic suffering, Intersectional Feminism (Collins and Bilge, 2020), the Sociology of Emotions (Hochschild, 2012), and the theory of Gender as a device of domination and performativity (Foucault, 2021a; Butler, 2019). The methodology adopted is qualitative, exploratory, and descriptive. The study combines an extensive literature review (37 articles and 2 dissertations) with the analysis of field research, based on semi-structured interviews with civil police officers in Maranhão who have more than six years of experience in DEAMs. As an aspect of the conclusion, the research reveals that police officers' frustration is amplified by the bureaucracy of the justice system and the recurring withdrawal of victims from continuing the investigation. This scenario generates what Dejours (2021) conceptualizes as ethical suffering, as the professional's subjective investment, which requires the performance of an "affective" and welcoming "femininity," does not find symbolic validation within the institution, resulting in emotional exhaustion and psychological illness.
A CASERNA NÃO ENSINA NA SOMBRA: a formação policial militar como racionalidade institucional explícita
(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2026-03-20) Ramos, Weden Carlos; Machado, Maria Izabel; https://lattes.cnpq.br/5727858375243141; Carvalho, Thais Regina de; Bordin, Marcelo; Machado , Maria Izabel
This dissertation analyzes the training process within the Military Police of Espírito Santo (PMES), examining how an explicit institutional rationality organizes practices, rites, and regimes of conduct that produce subjectivities and strain the incorporation of Human Rights guidelines. It problematizes the use of the "hidden curriculum" category to explain the mismatch between the official discourse of citizenship-oriented training and the daily experience of the barracks. It argues that the decisive formative core does not operate through concealment, but rather through the publicization and repeated legitimation of a "pedagogy of form" that precedes content. A qualitative approach with an autoethonographic orientation is adopted, articulating the researcher's situated experience as an officer and instructor, the documentary analysis of regulations, manuals, and internal norms, and semi-structured interviews with soldiers and sergeants. The findings indicate that training acts as a technology of power that reorganizes body and time, produces a rupture with civilian references, and consolidates adherence to the military ethos through physical exhaustion, peer surveillance, exposure, and disciplinary moralization—progressively narrowing the field of the "sayable" and turning self-censorship into an institutional competence. It is argued that Human Rights discourse tends to enter as a prescription and is translated into a regime of adaptation to command, generating occasional shifts but frequently being reabsorbed as a language of compliance, evaluation, and proof. The study concludes that the limits of citizenship-oriented training stem less from curricular gaps and more from an internal moral economy that rewards toughness, virility, and silence; therefore, effective changes require reconfiguring the regimes of visibility, speech, and recognition that structure the barracks.
Análise da atuação do poder judiciário brasileiro na proteção da democracia como direito humano entre 2018 e 2025
(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2026-02-20) Duarte, Renê Mendonça; Joo, Carlos Ugo Santander; https://lattes.cnpq.br/8838030644558019; Silva, Magno Luiz Medeiros da; Cavalcante, Jéssica Painkow Rosa
This research aims to analyze the role played by the Brazilian Judiciary, especially the Supreme Federal Court and the Superior Electoral Court, in guaranteeing and protecting the Democratic State in Brazil, due to institutional attacks perpetrated by public and political agents, with the purpose of eroding Brazilian democracy, considered a universal and fundamental human right, between 2018 and 2025. To address the problem, a qualitative, exploratory, and explanatory research approach was chosen, adopting the hypotheticaldeductive method and, subsidiarily and within the possibilities of the study, conducting a historical analysis of the Brazilian political scenario and a comparative analysis of the US democratic crisis since the first election of Donald Trump. The work included an approach to relevant judicial decisions issued by the Supreme Federal Court and the Superior Electoral Court, exploring their impacts on the protection of democracy. To answer the presented problem and the proposed objectives, the research had three sections: in the first section, the characterization of democracy as a human right was conceptually investigated; in the second section, the process of attempted erosion of the Democratic State in Brazil was explored, with a subsidiary analysis of the democratic crisis in the United States of America during Donald Trump's first term (2016-2020) and after his re-election in 2025, seeking similarities with the scenario experienced in Brazil; and in the third section, the role of the Judiciary in containing the threat of erosion of Brazilian democracy between 2018 and 2025 was analyzed. It was concluded, in the end, that the Brazilian Judiciary, alongside other actors such as the political opposition, sectors of civil society, and members of the Armed Forces, played a role in preventing the process of autocratization and enabling the maintenance of democracy in Brazil.
O programa UFGInclui na perspectiva dos direitos humanos: a presença de indígenas mulheres na graduação e os desafios do pertencimento acadêmico na UFG
(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2026-12-15) Santos, Liliene Rabelo dos; Portela, Cristiane de Assis; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3784712778116925; Arbués, Margareth Pereira; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8826668985459839; Arbués, Margareth Pereira; Portela, Cristiane de Assis; Dias, Luciana de Oliveira; Maas, María Leticia Briseño
In this research report, I investigated how affirmative action policies implemented at the Federal University of Goiás, especially through the UFGInclui Program, have contributed to the enrollment and retention of Indigenous women between 2013 and 2023. The objective was to understand to what extent institutional practice has articulated interculturality and gender equity as structuring principles of higher education committed to Human Rights. Created in 2008, the Program has consolidated itself as a policy aimed at democratizing access to the university for students from public schools, Black people from public schools, Indigenous people, and Black quilombola people. Its reformulation in 2012, motivated by the enactment of Law No. 12.711/2012 (Quota Law), broadened the visibility and reach of places reserved for indigenous and quilombola students, resulting in a significant increase in enrollment from 2016 onwards. A qualitative-quantitative approach is adopted, articulating document analysis, literature review, and interviews with program coordinators, students, and Indigenous women graduates, making it possible to interpret both the institutional dynamics and the formative experiences. The results indicate that, although the UFGInclui Program has expanded access for Indigenous women, especially after 2013 with the creation of the MEC Permanence Scholarship, student retention policies remain insufficient. The students’ trajectories indicate that this process of inclusion still presents challenges, particularly with regard to pedagogical support and the incorporation of the perspective of gender and ethnic intersectionality into institutional policies. This limits the academic sense of belonging and the identity rootedness of these students, who depend not only on financial support but also on an environment that recognizes Indigenous epistemologies and sustains a symmetrical intercultural dialogue. The presence of Indigenous women at UFG reveals paradoxes in education in and for human rights and, at the same time, highlights the transformative potential of affirmative action policies, which are still marked by a functional interculturality that does not fully confront structural inequalities.

Perspectivas para o direito à morte digna no Brasil

This dissertation investigates the ethical, legal, and human dilemmas related to euthanasia in the contemporary Brazilian context, especially in light of advances in medical technology and the possibility of prolonging life in terminal situations. It defends the hypothesis that, in cases where patients in an irreversible terminal state, undergoing exclusively palliative care, freely and consciously express their desire to shorten their suffering, the criminalization of euthanasia constitutes a violation of the constitutional principles of human dignity and private autonomy, requiring a revision of the Penal Code and the development of specific medical-legal protocols. The work is based on the understanding that the right to life, although fundamental, is not absolute and must be interpreted in harmony with dignity and individual freedom, as determined by the Federal Constitution of 1988. The weight of religious values, notably Christian doctrine, in the legislative debate is analyzed, highlighting the need for respect for the secular state and the prohibition of dogmatic influence in public policies. The overall objective of the research is to demonstrate that there are sufficient constitutional and legal grounds to regulate dignified death in Brazil. Among the specific objectives are understanding the concept of life as an absolute legal value, discussing the limits of autonomy and dignity in terminal cases, evaluating the role of the secular state in end-of-life policies, the identification of legal and ethical barriers to the regulation of euthanasia, and the proposal of a normative approach based on the theory of care, recognizing dignified death as a legitimate expression of the rights to health, freedom, and dignity. The methodology adopted is bibliographic, with a qualitative and interdisciplinary approach, allowing for an in-depth analysis of legal, bioethical, philosophical, and theological texts. This approach makes it possible to capture the nuances of the arguments and promote a critical dialogue between law, medical ethics, and spirituality, recognizing the complexity and sensitivity of the topic. The reflection is enriched by the perspective of theologian Pessini (2004), who proposes an understanding of death as a transition and the ultimate act of freedom, emphasizing the importance of care, active listening, and recognition of the subjectivity and suffering of the terminally ill patient. Linked to this perspective, when addressing the concept of good living, authors such as Acosta (2016), Arantes (2016), Gudynas (2011) Tronto (2013), and in addressing euthanasia and its characteristics, Fachini (2013) Goldim (2000), Horta (1999), Nobrega Filho (2010), and Pessini (2004) were used. In the field of Brazilian and Colombian legislation, this research drew on the provisions of the respective Federal Constitutions, the Brazilian Penal and Civil Codes, and the decisions of the Federal Supreme Court. It was concluded that Brazilian law provides the necessary basis for euthanasia to be legalized. However, due to Christian influence, the issue still faces many obstacles, mainly related to religious conceptions of life.
Na dúvida, “tratamento precoce”: desinformação sobre fármacos ineficazes contra covid-19 na cobertura jornalística
(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2023-03-29) Araújo, Márcia Regina; Lima, Angelita Pereira de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0743648273038535; Lima, Angelita Pereira de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0743648273038535; Moraes, Ângela Teixeira de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5759623883813822; Ribeiro, Rafiza Luziani Varão; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8715629033536068
This research emerged from the theme “Journalism and denialism in the pandemic: the dilemma of access to information, health and scientific knowledge”. Therefore, sought to investigate the impacts of official denialist discourses on journalistic coverage related to the Covid-19 pandemic in Brazil. Focusing on the coverage of the false “early treatment” or “covid kit”, the research consisted of a content analysis of journalistic articles from the Folha de S. Paulo daily newspaper, according to Laurence Bardin, based on the adapted criteria matrix of verification by Adriana Santana. Our hypothesis was that the expressions “covid kit” and “early treatment” would have been absorbed and adopted by Folha de S. Paulo without a standardized approach, in which the adoption of declaratory journalism based on official sources ended up prevailing. Thus, through misinformation associated with these expressions, the newspaper added to disinformation regarding the Covid-19 pandemic. Among the authors we work with, for the discussion on human rights and ethics, are Costas Douzinas and Emmanuel Lévinas. We also reflect on science and denialism from the research carried out by historians Naomi Oreskes and Erik Conway, and we use Leon Festinger's theory of cognitive dissonance to understand the misinformation process. For considerations on journalism’s productive routines and procedures, we bring the contributions of Nelson Traquina, Pereira Junior and Adriana Santana. The content analysis indicated a prevalence of official government sources in the articles analyzed – present in 86% of the texts. In 66% of the news articles, there was ambiguity regarding the validity of using ineffective drugs for Covid- 19 to treat the disease. We concluded that the ambiguity in framing the question contributed to disinformation and, consequently, to the reduction of cognitive dissonances in relation to false treatments.
Ações afirmativas, educação e efetivação de direitos: convergências e singularidades na inclusão de estudantes afro-brasileiros e afro-mexicanos no ensino superior
(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2025-09-29) Oliveira, Igor da Silva Coelho; Dias, Luciana de Oliveira; http://lattes.cnpq.br/9317426815646934; Dias, Luciana de Oliveira; Carvalho, Thaís Regina de; Benite, Anna Maria Canavarro; Krstulovic, Rosa Claudia Lora
The development of the research that underpins this dissertation was strongly inspired by the reflections brought about by the tenth anniversary of the enactment of Law No. 12.711, of August 29, 2012 (the Quota Law). This legislation included a provision for its review after ten years of implementation. As this date approached, debates surrounding the importance of affirmative action policies in Brazil were reignited. Amid the controversy between supporters and opponents of racial quotas, scientific research plays a vital role in deepening understanding of the topic and highlighting how such policies are essential for ensuring racial equity. In parallel, an international academic exchange in Mexico sparked a comparative investigation into the affirmative actions implemented at the Federal University of Goiás (UFG) and the Benemérita Universidad Autónoma de Puebla (BUAP). Considering the presented context, my focus was centered on the issue involving how affirmative action policies in higher education promote the educational inclusion of Afro-descendant students in Brazil and Mexico, based on the historical specificities, racial markers, and social configurations of each country. This study aims to comparatively analyze how affirmative action policies in higher education contribute to the educational inclusion of Afro-descendant populations in Brazilian and Mexican societies, taking into account their historical contexts, racial inequalities, and social dynamics. In Brazil, the Quota Law encompasses various social groups that have experienced — and continue to experience — historical discrimination. However, this research focuses specifically on the racial aspect, addressing self-declared Black and Brown individuals in Brazil, and Afro-Mexicans in the Mexican context. The study plays a crucial role in understanding the inclusion policies adopted in both countries. To that end, the research draws on conceptual categories grounded in the work of prominent scholars who have contributed to the theoretical development of public policy (Basso, Ferreira & Oliveira, 2022), racial inequality (Gonzalez, 2018), the Afro-Mexican population (Beltrán, 1981), self-identification (Ávila, 2018), intersectionality (Crenshaw, 2002), inclusion (Carvalho, 2016), affirmative action (Dias, 2012), racial quotas (Carvalho, 2016), and heteroidentification procedures (Nunes, 2018). The aim of this study is to analyze, from a comparative perspective, the social relations present in the Brazilian and Mexican contexts. Furthermore, it conducts a comparative review of inclusion and affirmative action policies for Afro-descendant populations in higher education in both countries. It also analyzes how racial dynamics unfold in the Mexican context in comparison to the Brazilian reality. Lastly, the study seeks to understand how affirmative action policies contribute to access to higher education in both nations. To achieve these objectives, a bibliographic review was conducted on the concepts previously mentioned, along with the collection of documents that allowed for an analysis of the implementation of the right to education for Black populations in Brazil and Mexico. The dissertation also includes a report on the academic exchange experience carried out in the city of Puebla, Mexico, and a case study involving students from both UFG and BUAP.The main findings of the research highlight the divergence between the factors influencing the self-identification of Black students in the two countries; the convergence in the way racism operates in Brazilian and Mexican societies; and the presence of institutional racism within higher education institutions in both national contexts.

For indigenous peoples, territory transcends the material and physical dimension, serving as a sociocultural resource intrinsically linked to their ancestral beliefs and knowledge. The struggle for land, which has persisted since the arrival of the Portuguese, is therefore a battle for their very cultural and spiritual survival. In this context, the leadership of indigenous women has been a prominent force, especially with the emergence of groups and associations in the 1980s and 1990s. The fight by indigenous women is crucial for preserving their cultures and ways of life. They act as protectors and perpetuators of values and traditions, rejecting the homogenization imposed by colonialism. The movement led by women, such as the National Articulation of Indigenous Warrior Women of Ancestry (ANMIGA) and the Indigenous Women's March, demands a new approach that recognizes their needs and epistemologies, ensuring that the right to land is respected as the fundamental basis for the existence and resistance of their peoples
