- Promoção da igualdade de gênero na educação com tecnologias digitais: revisão sistemáticaPublication . Mouraz, Ana; Borges, Irina; Seabra, Filipa; Vieira, Cristina PereiraEsta revisão da literatura insere-se num projeto que visa promover a igualdade de gênero por meio do desenvolvimento de competências digitais em contextos escolares de Angola, Cabo Verde e Guiné-Bissau. O estudo analisa de que modo as iniciativas de educação digital contribuem para a equidade de gênero em diferentes contextos socioculturais, articulando três dimensões inter-relacionadas: igualdade de gênero, competências digitais e práticas pedagógicas. Com base no protocolo PRISMA, a seleção sistemática resultou num corpus de 58 artigos. Os resultados mostram que o acesso, o uso crítico e a criação com tecnologias digitais são fatores centrais para promover a igualdade. Contudo, a persistência de barreiras socioculturais evidencia que o acesso, por si só, não garante a equidade de gênero.

- Interfaces between communication, education and health: a scoping review protocolPublication . Batista, Natalia Araújo do Nascimento; Henriques, Susana; Lacerda, Juciano; Aline de Pinho Dias; Muñoz Gallego, Almudena; Abreu, Danielle Correia Neves; Clemente, Heleni Aires; Bidarra, José; Araújo, Kaline Sampaio de; Coutinho, Karilany Dantas; Sanjuán Núñez, Lucía; Romão, Manoel Honorio; Freire, Maria da Guia Cunha Dantas; Tavares, Mirian; Reis, Mônica Karina Santos; Lorite García, Nicolás; Valentim, RicardoIntroduction The interfaces between the fields of communication, education and health have been indicated by international institutions such as the WHO and the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control. However, hegemonic scientific practices supersede dialogue between the three fields, isolating their practices. This fragmenting tendency is observed in scientific literature, which has created gaps in the dialogue and articulation between communication, education and health. Although health promotion requires both communicative and educational practices, the epistemological, historical, political, cultural and socioeconomic aspects have also engendered tensions between the fields. Communication is often seen as a mere instrument for other practices, rather than a phenomenon that (re)produces meanings and power dynamics. In opposing the reductionist and instrumentalising perspectives of knowledge fields, the primary objective of the scoping review is to map the scientific evidence on the interfaces between communication and education in health to indicate a conceptual framework that articulates communication and education practices within the context of health. Methods and analysis A transdisciplinary team developed this protocol based on the 2024 Joanna Briggs Institute Manual for Evidence Synthesis. The procedures required to conduct the review were guided by the frameworks proposed by Arksey and O'Malley, Levac et al and Peters et al. The study eligibility criteria were established based on the Problem, Concept and Context outlined in the research questions. Primary and secondary studies will be retrieved from nine sources, covering both conventional and grey literature. These sources include Embase, ERIC, LILACS, PubMed/MEDLINE, ScienceDirect, Scopus, Web of Science, the Brazilian Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations, and the Networked Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations. A categorised form will be used for data collection and subsequent analysis. The reporting of the review findings will follow the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews. Ethics and dissemination The nature of the research and the use of secondary data sources do not require informed consent forms or approval from ethics committees in Brazil. The scientific findings from the review will be disseminated through peer-reviewed journals, academic conferences and other scientific communication channels. Study registration The protocol was registered on the Open Science Framework (OSF) and is available at https://doi.org/10.17605/OSF.IO/Z3CX7.
- Permanent health education for health economics in Brazil: a forgotten facet?Publication . Romão, Manoel Honório; Paiva, Jordana Crislayne de Lima; Silva, Lorena de Macêdo; Oliveira Junior, Elinaldo Bernardo de; Costa, João Maria Macêdo da; Felipe, Israel José dos Santos; campos, Rodrigo Pires de; Lima, Thaísa Góis Farias de Moura Santos; Rêgo, Maria Carmem F.

Methods: This is an exploratory and descriptive qualitative study, grounded in the document analysis of 126 records categorized according to the elements proposed by Williams and content analysis based on Bardin’s method (2016). Results: The findings revealed a lack of programmatic, budgetary, and strategic guidelines specifically aimed at PHE in Health Economics, as well as a restricted provision of specialized courses and limited integration with public health management policies. Comparative analysis with international experiences, including the United Kingdom, Belgium, and South Africa, demonstrates that the institutionalization of HE training fosters greater efficiency, equity, sustainability, and rationality in the use of public resources. The findings suggest that continuous technical qualification in this field constitutes an essential component for strengthening Brazil’s National Health System (SUS). Discussion: In this context, there is a clear need for the formulation of government policies that stimulate, incentivize, and expand PHE in Health Economics, leveraging the potential of technological platforms such as AVASUS and the Brazil Telehealth Program, both of which possess significant reach, adherence, and engagement across the national territory.
- Effectiveness of a learning pathway on food and nutrition in amyotrophic lateral sclerosisPublication . Coutinho, Karla Mônica Dantas; Rabelo, Humberto; Fernandes, Felipe; Coutinho, Karilany Dantas; Valentim, Ricardo Alexsandro de Medeiros; Dias, Aline de Pinho; Valentim, Janaína Luana Rodrigues da Silva; Batista, Natalia Araújo do Nascimento; Romão, Manoel Honorio; Cunha, Priscila Sanara da; Oliveira, Aliete Cunha; Henriques, Susana; Melo, Luciana Protásio de; Vale, Sancha Helena de Lima; Lais, Lucia Leite; Lima, Kenio Costa deBackground/Objectives: Health education plays a vital role in training health professionals and caregivers, supporting both prevention and the promotion of self-care. In this context, technology serves as a valuable ally by enabling continuous and flexible learning. Among the various domains of health education, nutrition stands out as a key element in the management of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), helping to prevent malnutrition and enhance patient well-being. Accordingly, this study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the teaching and learning processes within a learning pathway focused on food and nutrition in the context of ALS. Methods: This study adopted a longitudinal, quantitative design. The learning pathway, titled “Food and Nutrition in ALS,” consisted of four self-paced and self-instructional Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs), offered through the Virtual Learning Environment of the Brazilian Health System (AVASUS). Participants included health professionals, caregivers, and patients from all five regions of Brazil. Participants had the autonomy to complete the courses in any order, with no prerequisites for enrollment. Results: Out of 14,263 participants enrolled nationwide, 182 were included in this study after signing the Informed Consent Form. Of these, 142 (78%) completed at least one course and participated in the educational intervention. A significant increase in knowledge was observed, with mean pre-test scores rising from 7.3 (SD = 1.8) to 9.6 (SD = 0.9) on the post-test across all courses (p < 0.001). Conclusions: The self-instructional, technology-mediated continuing education model proved effective in improving participants’ knowledge about nutrition in ALS. Future studies should explore knowledge retention, behavior change, and the impact of such interventions on clinical outcomes, especially in multidisciplinary care settings.
- Selective imprisonment in Brasil: a story beyond the wallsPublication . Valentim, Janaína Luana Rodrigues da Silva; Azevedo, Bruna; Fernandes, Emily; Coutinho, Karoliny Dantas; Silva, Ronaldo; Henriques, Susana; Romão, Manoel Honório; Batista, Natalia Araújo do Nascimento; Coutinho, Karilany Dantas; Valentim, Ricardo Alexsandro de Medeiros; Oliveira, Carlos Alberto Pereira de; Dias, Aline de PinhoThis article discusses the Brazilian prison system and the challenges posed by social inequality that affect the prison population, presenting a concise historical context. The work is situated within the paradoxical context of a country with a Criminal Enforcement Law (LEP) considered modern, but which maintains a selective, segregating, and punitive model of incarceration. The central objective of this study is to analyze the contrast between the humanized ideal of the Criminal Enforcement Law (LEP) and the selective and exclusionary reality of the national prison system. It seeks to substantiate the social injustices perpetrated in prisons, often through the very mechanisms of justice. Furthermore, the article aims to discuss the need for transformation of the prison system, in alignment with the principles of human rights and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. The methodology of this study is qualitative and reflective in nature, delineated from a transdisciplinary approach. The narrative construction permeates a theoretical review of the legal, social, and ideological aspects of the prison system, with a dialogue between Law, Social Sciences, Public Health, and Education. The analysis included an examination of the Criminal Enforcement Law and a historical review from the Penal Code of 1830, in addition to a critical interpretation of official data and empirical studies. The results indicate institutional ineffectiveness in Brazilian prisons, operating as the last step in a systematic process of denial of rights that precedes imprisonment. It is demonstrated that overcrowding, low levels of education, and racial selectivity characterize the discrepancy between the norm and reality. However, the study highlights the potential of the Criminal Enforcement Law as an instrument for inducing humanitarian public policies. The analysis in light of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) reveals that the effectiveness of the law requires integrated actions in health, education, and work, transforming the prison into a space for citizen reconstruction.

- Tecnologia, sustentabilidade e desigualdade social: desafios e perspectivas na revolução digitalPublication . Vieira, Marianne; Neves, Gabriela Furtado; Medeiros, Aparecida Dantas de Almeida; Vieira, Alberto da Costa; Henriques, Susana; Veloso, Cláudia Miranda; Valentim, Ricardo; Reis, Mario dosEste estudo investiga a relação entre a Revolução Digital, sustentabilidade e desigualdade social. O objetivo é entender como as Tecnologias da Informação e Comunicação (TIC) podem impulsionar mudanças estruturais e reduzir desigualdades, ao mesmo tempo em que geram exclusão digital em populações marginalizadas. A metodologia utilizada foi uma revisão de literatura, com base em obras de autores como Schwab (2016) e Bielschowsky e Torres (2018), que fornecem uma visão crítica sobre os impactos da Revolução Digital. Os resultados revelam que, embora as TIC ofereçam oportunidades de inclusão social e econômica, elas também intensificam disparidades, principalmente nas regiões em desenvolvimento, onde o acesso à internet e outras tecnologias ainda é limitado. A conclusão aponta para a necessidade de políticas públicas que promovam o acesso equitativo à tecnologia e reduzam as barreiras digitais, favorecendo o desenvolvimento sustentável e a equidade social.
- Interculturality, public health and health education: data report based on the Virtual Learning Environment of the Brazilian Health System (AVASUS)Publication . Cunha, Priscila; Batista, Natalia; Fernandes, Felipe; Barbalho, Ingridy; Romão, Manoel Honorio; Coutinho, Karla; Valentim, Janaína; Lacerda, Juciano; Dias, Aline de P.; Henriques, Susana; Valentim, Ricardo; Alves, Fátima; Coutinho, Karilany D.Interculturality is increasingly gaining conceptual and operational relevance, especially in public health, since the cultural diversity of population groups generates myriad needs and demands for health services. In this scenario, technology-mediated Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) have become innovative strategies for health training from an intercultural perspective. In Brazil, this is exemplified by the reinforcement of comprehensive Indigenous health care initiatives under primary health care. Prison health is also part of this spectrum of measures, as seen in the National Policy for Comprehensive Healthcare for People Deprived of Liberty. Hence, the prison population is a significant example of cultural and social diversity.
