Keywords:
Violence prevention, LGBTQIAPN, sexual diversity, gender, universityAbstract
Violence against the LGBTQIAPN+population is a topic that plagues countless people who do not fit into the socially established cisheteronormativepattern. Studies indicate that the university, being inserted in society, reproduces this form of violence by not creating effective prevention strategies and overcoming this phenomenon within it. Supported by dialogic learning and the Communicative Methodology, this article presents the results of an investigation that sought to point out, from the understanding of18undergraduate students, the way in which a public university in the state of São Paulo works to combatprejudice based on sexual and genderdiversityin its spaces, identifying the excluding and transforming elements that are capable of promoting, preventing and overcoming violence against LGBTQIAPN+people. As mainresult, this research indicates that the public positioning of the managementof these universities, the establishment of policiesto combat violence, as well as the construction of training spaces on the subject for students, professors and other employees throughout the academic field, provide a more welcoming, respectful and free of any form of prejudice against this population in question.
