This thesis project consists WHOQOL-LIBRAS. This project is a partnership between the Federal University of Goiás, the World Health Organization and the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul. For their implementation was divided into two sub-projects: 1) Project 1 - Construction of the version of the LIBRAS WHOQOL-BREF and WHOQOL DIS, 2) Project 2 - Implementation / validation of the LIBRAS version of WHOQOL-BREF and WHOQOL - DIS. The realization of the project 1 was guided by a methodology developed by WHO, adapted by the WHOQOL GROUP in Brazil, which consisted of thirteen steps. This study complies with the Stage 7 Project 1 with the completion of a three focus groups to analyze the LIBRAS version of WHOQOL-DIS. Objectives of this study were to evaluate the understanding and relevance of the instrument WHOQOL-DIS translated to Brazilian Sign Language and perform integrative literature review to identify public policies for health care of the person checking the recognition of Deaf people as language and cultural minority in Brazilian legislation. Cross-sectional study, exploratory, qualitative, uses focus group technique in three groups: 1) group of Deaf users of LIBRAS, 2) group of family members of the Deaf, 3) group of interpreters of the LIBRAS. Made in the Federal Institute of Goiás groups had six to nine participants. Two meetings were held. The first meeting was to explain the project of quality of life/WHO. The second meeting was to discuss the version of each issue of LIBRAS WHOQOL-DIS. At the end of each issue discussed his understanding, relevance and collected suggestions for change.
