Educação em saúde com adolescentes quilombolas como estratégia de construção da paz.

The objective of this work is to report the extension experience in a public school with quilombola adolescents with health education as a strategy for peace-building. The methodology considered the use of the participatory method and the development of ludic activity among adolescents aged between 11 and 18 years, belonging to a municipal school in the quilombola rural black community located in the rural area of Feira de Santana-Ba. It resulted in the development of activities that favored the promotion of self-esteem, racial selfaffirmation, the recovery of the identity of black adolescents, contributing to the empowerment to face racism/violence and the reinforcement of peace-building strategies. The methodology used made it possible for students to approach the new form of activity. We understand the probable factors that motivate violence among adolescents and we see the need for continuing educational activities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
