On March 6th and 20th, April 3rd and 17th and May 5th and 15th, Bahianescer Program workshops were held in the auditorium of Escola Márcia Mércia, in the Mata Escura Community.

The program totaled six workshops and the topics debated until May 15th involved the themes of citizenship and politics, implementation of the adolescent's booklet, health and movement (healthy lifestyle habits), mental health in adolescence and family. It is important to highlight that, until the end of the semester, sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), violence and the culture of peace will still be discussed.

     
For the preparation of the workshops, active learning methodologies were used with young people and adolescents from Mata Escura, whose objective was to integrate the students of the Bahiana in community experiences, team and interprofessional work, training of health multipliers, promotion of a healthy environment for conversation circles on health topics and current general knowledge, and encouragement of youth protagonism.

Youngsters from the social collective Adolescer com Arte took part in workshops that use the content discussed, multiplying information in their community, schools, neighborhood associations, among others.

As the final product of this work, a theater play is designed and scripted to consolidate the knowledge acquired and disseminate it to the social actors involved and the community.

The program focuses on interdisciplinary work for health promotion and education with the participation of professors from the Nursing and Physical Education courses and students from the Nursing and Psychology courses. The idea is to promote the development of reflection through activities with young people and adolescents, based on the comprehensive care policy for adolescent health, edited by the Ministry of Health, in addition to implementing a training program for health multipliers to promote and self-care with the teen audience.

BAHIANESCER comes up with the ideals of the Nursing course at Bahiana with the proposal to academically contribute to a differentiated look at the integral health of adolescents and young people in an interprofessional program.
