Eu só quero é ser feliz: A educação em direitos humanos como política da ressocialização nas unidades educacionais de internação de Mato Grosso do Sul

Abstract

This work investigates the relationship between human rights education and the resocialization of young black women in conflict with the law in the Educational Internment Units (UNEIs) of Mato Grosso do Sul. The research highlights the author's identity as a black, class-conscious woman, using a personal approach to issues of social vulnerability and the defense of rights. Despite the refusal of the institution to carry out the field research, through a meeting informing them of the protection of the young women present in the unit, although it was indicated that their needs would be respected, it was possible to identify significant gaps in the approach to resocialization for adolescents, especially in relation to gender and race. The bibliographic analysis revealed the absence of effective projects aimed at this public and the lack of up-to-date data, reflecting the invisibility of young black women in conflict with the law. Through a qualitative approach, including a bibliographical review and critical analysis, the research seeks to contribute to the construction of a fairer and more effective socio-educational system that meets the needs and realities of young black women from the periphery. The conclusion emphasizes the importance of initiatives that promote the expansion of the infrastructure of UNEIs and the implementation of programs that are sensitive to gender and race issues, reinforcing the need for a system that respects and promotes the human rights of adolescent girls in detention.
