| Sumario: | The programme of the subject “Human Rights: Civil Police and Diversity”, taught in the training courses of the Civil Police Academy of São Paulo, has undergone a series of changes over the years, especially by implementing themes such as gender, race, sexual diversity and disability. This article seeks to analyse whether the teaching staff responsible for this subject received initial or continuing training to deal with these new issues. To this end, we sought to identify the processes of instructors’ selection, as well as if there were qualification programs for the instructors developed by the unit. The methodological path was based on the literature review, with special attention to the topic about police training and teacher training; documentary, in the Official State Gazette and legislation about the Police Academy, especially regarding the selection and training of instructors; and participant observation. The investigation revealed that there are few discussions and qualification initiatives about police training in specialized literature and in the Police Academy itself. This lack of research can hinder the effective implementation of the pedagogical proposal presented in the human rights programme. |
