Palavras-chave:
social name, gender identity, recognitionResumo
This is an interdisciplinary research, in progress, which aims to understand the intricacies of the attribution of the social name to transgender students. It studies the administrative dynamics of CEPE/UFES Resolution No. 23/2014 and how policies have been promoted to ensure the exercise of this right. It intends to investigate the dynamics used by the University to ensure the effectiveness of the use of the social name in the scope of academic life; aims to verify the existence (or not) of guidance for students regarding the use of this right; and how the student with a social name has perceived respect for his identity. The research method to be used is phenomenology along with field research, qualitative, and documentary at UFES. The instrument for access to data will be face-to-face interviews with transgender students, to know their experiences regarding the recognition of their gender identity in academic life, to anchor their narratives, and bring to the fore situations, which can serve as a basis for an institutional strategy of policies aiming to crystallize a culture of respect and recognition of gender identity in the academic community researched.
