Acessibilidade arquitetônica de pessoas com paralisia cerebral no CEST/UEA

Abstract

This article's main objective is to analyze whether architectural accessibility is being guaranteed to people with Cerebral Palsy (CP), in accordance with legal prerogatives, within the CEST/UEA space. To achieve this, a qualitative and descriptive approach to the problem was adopted in relation to the objectives. Data collection techniques included documentary analysis and field observations and records, both written and photographic. Authors, laws and decrees were consulted, which contributed to a better understanding of the research. Corrêa's basis stands out, which highlights accessibility as a legal right, in addition to the important accessibility laws, such as Law nº 10.098/2000, Decree-Law nº 5.296/2004, Law nº 13.146/2015, and the Law nº 10.048/2000. Dischinger, which emphasizes the use of Universal Design, and Kijima, which addresses the concept of CP (Cerebral Palsy), were also referenced. It is clear that the CEST/UEA space is only partially accessible, which is still insufficient to fully meet the accessibility needs of people with Cerebral Palsy (CP).
