Knowledge of Quilombola teenagers incorporated into scientific knowledge in the construction of an educational script on pregnancy

Abstract

This study aims to illustrate how the knowledge of adolescents from the Quilombola community was incorporated with scientific knowledge in the preparation of a script for two comic strips in an educational material about unplanned pregnancy in the context of their experiences using the database of a participatory research, which used the Creative and Sensitive Method, for the Dynamics of Creativity and Sensitivity, which provided images and narratives that were used in the development of the storyline “The mysterious pregnancy by kissing” and the “School: space for dialogues and health promotion ”that makes up the almanac entitled:“ Legends and stories of teenage pregnancy in a Quilombola community ”. In addition to the stories, the almanac addresses scientific demands with curiosities, a hobby and you knew it. The stories produced in a participatory way valued experiences, meanings, divergences and convergences between popular and scientific knowledge, translating the daily reality of Afro-Brazilian teenagers in a useful, pleasant, didactic and enlightening way, to be used in the educational process.
