Perder a Visão, Ganhar o Sonho: A Jornada Inclusiva | Mizael Conrado | TEDxFIA Business School Salon
Mizael nos convida a uma reflexão profunda sobre o verdadeiro significado da inclusão e o poder transformador do esporte na vida de cada indivíduo. Compartilhando sua própria jornada de vida, ele destaca como o esporte pode ser uma ferramenta poderosa para resgatar a autoestima, entregar resiliência e, acima de tudo, garantir o direito de sonhar e realizar. Sua fala é um apelo à sociedade para que enxergue a deficiência não como um problema do indivíduo, mas como um desafio do ambiente e da atitude coletiva. Mizael nasceu cego devido a uma catarata congênita e, após quatro cirurgias na infância, teve a visão restaurada. Aos nove anos, um descolamento de retina marcou o início da perda visual, que culminou na cegueira total aos 13 anos. Foi no Instituto Padre Chico, escola especial para pessoas com deficiência visual, que ele descobriu o futebol de 5, um esporte que mudou sua perspectiva de vida. Campeão mundial e duas vezes medalhista de ouro paralímpico, Mizael foi eleito o melhor jogador de futebol de 5 do mundo. Sua trajetória culminou na presidência do Comitê Paralímpico Brasileiro (CPB) em 2017, sendo reeleito em 2020. Atualmente, exerce o cargo de Secretário-Geral do CPB, defendendo incansavelmente a missão de promover o esporte paralímpico e a inclusão da pessoa com deficiência em todas as esferas da sociedade. Sua vida é um testemunho de que limitações físicas não definem o potencial humano, mas sim a capacidade de sonhar e a resiliência para transformar esses sonhos em realidade.
