SILÊNCIO DOS GIRASSÓIS: Histórias que os números não contam sobre a surdez

Abstract

This research presents the development of a multimedia report in a longform format, focused on the lived experiences of deaf children, their families, and educators, with the purpose of shedding light on both the challenges and the opportunities within inclusive education. Grounded in the understanding of journalism as a social practice, the project employs literary journalism as a key narrative approach, enabling in-depth listening to the sources and the production of texts that emphasize the subjectivities and individual stories involved. The methodology combines interviews and field research with multimedia production techniques that integrate text, photography, audio, and video. The outcome is a journalistic piece that offers both informative rigor and emotional resonance, reinforcing the potential of longform journalism as an accessible, engaging, and socially transformative format.
