- O Currículo Europeu de Prevenção (EUPC) na formação de profissionais como estratégia de inovação em CADPublication . Anjos, Purificação; Bettencourt, Carmen; Silva, Natacha Torres da; Prata, Isabel; Henriques, SusanaOBJETIVOS: Caracterizar o EUPC e discutir o processo formativo dos profissionais em prevenção, perspetivando o potencial de qualidade e inovação na intervenção preventiva METODOLOGIA: Partindo da análise do EUPC e da formação dos profissionais, discutimos os resultados do pré e pós teste realizados pelos formandos que frequentaram a microcredencial ‘EUPC-Frontline’. DESENVOLVIMENTO: O Currículo Europeu de Prevenção (EUPC) (EMCDDA 2019), surge num contexto de crescente interesse e atenção, a nível mundial, de desenvolvimento de padrões de qualidade dos profissionais em prevenção, promovendo também a capacitação dos decisores, líderes de opinião e responsáveis políticos. O EUPC é baseado em referenciais, normas e evidências internacionais, com uma filosofia de intervenção europeia, de respeito pelos direitos humanos, reconhecimento do valor complementar da redução de riscos e do equilíbrio entre os programas de prevenção e políticas públicas. O EUPC-Frontline, que dota os profissionais da linha da frente dos conhecimentos e ferramentas necessários para dar prioridade a intervenções baseadas em dados concretos evidências, eliminando gradualmente práticas obsoletas e iatrogénicas. Os resultados do pré- e pós-teste mostram o perfil dos formandos da primeira edição da microcredencial e revelam tendências no que se refere aos seus conhecimentos e atitudes face à prevenção. CONCLUSÃO: A formação dos profissionais reforça a ciência da prevenção ao capacitar os profissionais para a sua aplicação e desenvolvimento.
- Fostering sustainability through effective communication: perspectives from higher education in Cape VerdePublication . Semedo, Mirian; Mapar, Mahsa; Henriques, Susana; Bhuju, Dinesh; Sujakhu, Nani Maiya; Subedi, Divya LaxmiHigher Education Institutions (HEIs) have a central role in communicating sustainability within and beyond their campuses. However, there is still a lack of effective involvement in “communication for sustainability” at the Higher Education level. While sustainability has recently become a pivotal point in global discourses, its integration with effective communication pathways still reveals a notable gap. This study aims to explore the existing communication models and their potential adaptation for sustainability communication plans within HEIs. A diagnosis approach was carried out through a documentary analysis of 6 existing communication models (both traditional and HEI-specific sustainability communication models) followed by a content analysis. The results show some similarities between the existing communication plans, which encompass the objectives of communication, target audiences, and types of messages or actions intended for these audiences. However, certain models, especially those formulated for communication outside the scope of HEIs, illustrate greater structural clarity and are more comprehensible to the associated community, thereby enhancing the facility of evaluation in the future. Therefore, the plan for sustainability communication at HEIs can benefit from adopting these more structured and comprehensible models, leading to more effective engagement and ensuring alignment with their intended audience objectives.
- Implementation process of a manualised program: implications for research and practicePublication . Bettencout, Carmen; Sousa, Leonardo; Henriques, Susana; Silva, Natacha Torres daBackground: Socioemotional development strategies are an important way of empowering individuals to choose healthy behaviours. Scientific evidence shows that the earlier socio-emotional learning/management issues are addressed, the better the outcomes. Methods: The program “Calmly– Learning to Learn Yourself” focuses on the development of children’s socio-emotional skills and positive relationships. It emphasizes self-regulation, communication, adaptability, creative thinking, resilience, and problem-solving. It is considered a universal prevention program. Regarding its effectiveness, it has been indicated in the Xchange prevention registry as “Further studies recommended”. Consequently, the program’s application is subject to evaluation and a monitoring system that ensures data collection to assess its effectiveness. “Calmly” is being implemented by adequately trained facilitators in 1st Cycle schools (3rd year classes), during a school year, in Ponta Delgada, the largest municipality in the Azores and the one with the most fragilities. The program involves 19 classes, covering 320 children, in a classroom setting, with the presence of the teacher. Results: “Calmly” was designed according to a specific territorial context and for a determined target audience, having, further, been customized according to developmental stage. Despite the adaptation efforts, weaknesses were detected related to contextual and linguistic specificizes. However, the support materials for the intervention sessions could not be modified due to copyright and funding reasons. It is also worth noting that, due to the high cost of support materials, access had to be reduced for the target audience. The program's implementation is still ongoing. Despite being at this stage (approximately 50% of the intervention), some positive results can already be visible, particularly in terms of identifying basic emotions and using strategies for effective emotional management. Discussion: Despite having been subject to adaptation and customization for the required age group, the adaptation to the territorial, social and linguistic context did not prove to be the most appropriate. Although the Azores are an integral part of Portuguese territory and share some characteristics, we believe there are unique aspects that must be considered, including the ultraperipheral context. As a future strategy, we will focus on creating a program that originates in the Azores, but can be adapted to other territorial contexts.
