As oportunidades de aprendizagem ao longo da vida (ALV) para as pessoas com deficiĆŖncia e incapacidade sĆ£o parte integrante do direito Ć educaĆ§Ć£o, ao envolvimento comunitĆ”rio e Ć cidadania ativa. Enquanto resposta social de base comunitĆ”ria, a atuaĆ§Ć£o do CACI passa por encarar as oportunidades para a ALV como forma de mediar o percurso para a inclusĆ£o, possibilitando maior acesso aos recursos e atividades da comunidade. Apesar de constar na agenda polĆtica, este objetivo de aĆ§Ć£o tem sido pouco analisado, sobretudo quanto ao teor das oportunidades promovidas e de como se alinham com o desĆgnio de participaĆ§Ć£o na comunidade. O presente estudo pretende descrever a vida e participaĆ§Ć£o na comunidade de adultos apoiados em quatro CACI da zona Norte de Portugal, bem como, analisar as oportunidades de ALV promovidas por um destes serviƧos. Em particular, explorĆ”mos: (i) a frequĆŖncia e o envolvimento na comunidade atravĆ©s de uma pesquisa por inquĆ©rito a 105 pessoas apoiadas em CACI ā com a aplicaĆ§Ć£o de uma versĆ£o modificada do Index do Envolvimento na Comunidade (Raynes & Sumpton, 1989, modificada por Bigby, Bould & Beadle-Brown, 2015) ā e (ii) os temas, objetivos/conteĆŗdos e estratĆ©gias constantes em sessƵes pedagĆ³gicas desenvolvidas num CACI por meio de uma anĆ”lise documental. Para o primeiro objetivo, o estudo implicou a traduĆ§Ć£o e adaptaĆ§Ć£o para Portugal da versĆ£o modificada do Index. Para o segundo objetivo utilizou-se a ClassificaĆ§Ć£o Internacional de Funcionalidade (CIF) como esquema de categorizaĆ§Ć£o dos conteĆŗdos constantes no planeamento das sessƵes pedagĆ³gicas. Os resultados obtidos reforƧam que a vida e participaĆ§Ć£o na comunidade destes adultos Ć© pobre quer na frequĆŖncia, quer na conectividade com a comunidade. Da anĆ”lise das sessƵes pedagĆ³gicas realƧa-se o enfoque em competĆŖncias relacionadas com as manualidades e com o escrever, notando-se ainda parco investimento noutras Ć”reas importantes para a participaĆ§Ć£o comunitĆ”ria como sĆ£o a gestĆ£o financeira e a manutenĆ§Ć£o de relacionamentos. Destaca-se ainda a necessidade das atividades apostarem no empoderamento e competĆŖncias de escolha e decisĆ£o, desenvolvendo competĆŖncias de auto-advocacia e a capacidade para definir objetivos pessoais e planos de aĆ§Ć£o.
Lifelong Learning (LLL) opportunities for people with disabilities are an integral part of the right to education, community engagement and active citizenship. As a community-based social response, CACIĀ“s actions involve viewing opportunities for LLL as a way of mediating the path to inclusion, enabling greater access to community resources and activities. Despite appearing on the political agenda, this action objective has been little analysed, especially regarding the content of the opportunities promoted and how they align with the aim of participation in the community. The present study aims to describe the life and participation in the community of adults supported in four CACI in the north of Portugal, as well as to analyse the LLL opportunities promoted by one of these services. In particular, we explored: (i) attendance and involvement in the community through a survey of 105 people supported in CACI ā with the application of a modified version of the Community Involvement Index (Raynes & Sumpton, 1989, modified by Bigby, Bould & Beadle-Brown, 2015) ā and (ii) the themes, objectives/content and strategies contained in pedagogical sessions developed in a CACI through documentary analysis. For the first objective, the study involved the translation and adaptation of the modified version of the Index to Portugal. For the second objective, the International Classification of Functioning (ICF) was used as a scheme for categorizing the contents included in the planning of pedagogical sessions. The results obtained reinforce that the life and participation in the community of these adults is poor both in attendance and in connectivity with the community. The analysis of the pedagogical sessions highlights the focus on skills related to manual skills and writing, with little investment being noted in other areas important for community participation such as financial management and maintaining relationships. The need for activities to focus on empowerment and choice and decision-making skills is also highlighted, developing self-advocacy skills and the ability to define personal objectives and action plans.
