Intercultural approaches to language frame the classroom as an intercultural space, facilitating dialogue between different cultures that are either structurally interconnected or should be. In this environment, the teacher’s role is to guide and transform it into a truly intercultural space, ensuring that each classroom moment becomes an opportunity to share knowledge. This article discusses the intercultural bilingual dialogue between Brazil and Mozambique involving deaf and hearing students. This study mainly aims to encourage reflection on the intercultural perspective in teacher education by focusing on bilingual linguistic education in classrooms with deaf students interacting with hearing Brazilian, Indigenous, non-Indigenous, and Mozambican students. The methodology employed is based on experience reports from the Intercultural Aspects of Language subject, offered in 2022 within the Postgraduate Program in Letters and Linguistics at the Federal University of Goiás. The theoretical foundations are drawn from Mendes (2022), Rezende et al. (2020), Strobel and Gesser (2009), and Aguiar (2010). The reflection highlights the urgent need for an Intercultural Linguistic Education that redefines our existence and practices as teachers and/or students. In both the Brazilian and Mozambican contexts, the education of deaf students cannot be limited to ethical proposals or functional-level educational policies, they must also encompass an understanding of the body as a site of existence and resistance from an intercultural perspective.
