Uma investigação acerca dos impactos causados no cotidiano de pessoas que foram vítimas de LGBTfobia

Abstract

This research considered daily aspects of the participants who were victims of LGBTophobia in the city of Santa Maria - RS. Investigating the impacts that these violence caused in the life of these subjects, analyzing the narratives and the specificities of the experiences of each one. For this, the study worked with the concept of daily life in Occupational Therapy and describes how the violence suffered by the LGBT population is present in all social spaces. It is worth noting the importance of expanding the discussions on LGBTfobia, considering the low production of scientific articles in Occupational Therapy for this group. Thus the work is characterized by the bias of the qualitative research of an interpretative character and counted on the voluntary participation of LGBT people. The study sought a greater understanding of how violence acts in people's lives and, as a result, contributes to the intervention of occupational therapists and to further research on this subject. It was found in this research that the fear of violence is perhaps the impact that most influences the daily lives of the LGBT population in all areas of life, violates human rights and disorganizes people as subjects of rights. In this sense, we point out the importance of Occupational Therapists acting with this population in the reconstruction of life projects, using strategies so that they recognize themselves as agents transforming these realities, expanding their repertoires so that they know and guarantee their rights and intensify the struggles for public policies against LGBTophobia.
