This book is the result of a research whose objective was to analyze the Diversity and Inclusion Policy of the Bahian IF from the perspective of promoting the access and permanence of people with disabilities in the activities offered by the Institute. It was a qualitative research, characterized as interpretative and critical and was carried out, especially, through bibliographic research and field research, using questionnaires and semi-structured interviews.
