SUMMARY:

The right to the Truth is related to a nation's right to knowledge about facts and data, above all, about serious violations of human rights committed by the State under authoritarian regimes. The research is dedicated to the study of the implementation of the Right to Memory and Truth, as one of the six structuring axes of the 3rd National Human Rights Program (PNDH-3), in the State of Rio Grande do Norte. What justifies its claim, what supports it and how it is being carried out in Brazil today is the fact that the Right to Truth guarantees the non-repetition of facts. Thus, this study aims, specifically, evaluate the implementation process of the three guidelines referring to the Right to Memory and Truth contained in the PNDH-3; verify whether the State promoted the investigation and public clarification of Human Rights violations committed between 1964 and 1985; and examine whether there was an incentive to preserve historical memory and public construction of the truth about the civil-military dictatorship. Methodologically, considering the commitment of the current federal government in the last Universal Periodic Review of the Human Rights Council, we take as reference the date of institution of the PNDH-3, with a time frame until September 30, 2019. For this, the research was carried out in two dimensions: theoretical and empirical. In the first, the conceptual approach to human rights, the claim to the right to the truth and the role of memory in guaranteeing the transition from an authoritarian regime to democracy is developed. The second dimension, on the other hand, consists of fieldwork, comprising documentary research and conducting semi-structured interviews with managers, scholars, victims of the period, family members of the dead and missing and civil society associations. In the end, warning that there was no installation of a State Truth Commission in Rio Grande do Norte, the research was restricted to the UFRN, it is possible to say that the State is struggling to recover the truth about human rights violations, perpetrated by political repression during the 1964 civil-military regime, through a policy of memory.
