Those Who Speak Inclusively Always Get It Right: A discussion about inclusive language

This article explores the role of language in the (de)construction of inequalities, identifying inclusive communication as a strategy for promoting diversity and defying stereo-types. Based on a review of the state of the art, it presents institutional good practices for adopting inclusive language and, in an intersectional approach, discusses the interaction between language, discrimination, and performance in different groups of people. It reflects on linguistic, political, and social resistances, proposing directions for the use of inclusive language, which favor changes in attitudes, perceptions, and behaviors, contributing to achieving the principles of equality and non-discrimination.

Keywords
