| Sumario: | This research was based on the articulation between Inclusive Education and ScienceTeaching in non-formal spaces, seeking to contribute to the expansion of discussions regarding theinclusion of people with disabilities in Science museums, incorporating accessibility actions. Aiming toidentify and analyse the dimensions of Inclusive Education present / absent in Brazilian Sciencemuseums, the conceptions of the coordinators of Science museums and the creators of the “Guide toAccessible Science Museums and Science Centers” were investigated through a semi-structured interview.The data were analysed from the perspective of Content Analysis, according to categories defined a priori.Was observed that in the Physical dimension there is a predominance of aspects relevant to access to theinstitution. In the Programmatic dimension, actions that seek to reduce barriers arising from the lack oftraining of monitors were identified, which directly implies mediation. In the Communicationaldimension, it was possible to identify the creation of tactile and manipulable materials. In observing theAttitudinal dimension it was noticed that the institutions have developed practices of sensitization andawareness. However, the results show that some measures are still available with restrictions, or even,unavailable. The implementation of these changes must occur in the short, medium and long term sinceit is not possible to definitively address all the needs of the spaces and their visitors. We emphasize theneed for future research to be dedicated to understanding whether inclusion is effective in the museumspace and how the disabled person participates in this process. |
