Cómo diseñar talleres para promover la salud en grupos comunitarios / How to design workshops to promote health in community groups

Una de las estrategias de promoción de la salud es el desarrollo de habilidades para la vida considerando a las propias personas como principal recurso para la salud. Un taller ha de conseguir que sus participantes se conviertan en «activos» para tomar decisiones y generar salud, centrándose en el desarrollo y adquisición de habilidades en grupo de una manera motivadora y con la finalidad de alcanzar unos objetivos. Los conceptos que fundamentan el diseño de un taller y que han de plantearse como etapa 0 son: planificación participativa, capacitar, aprendizaje significativo, aprender en grupo y técnicas participativas. Las etapas que se deben seguir para diseñar un taller y facilitar su aplicación son: etapa 0 de fundamentación, etapa inicial, de acogida y de evaluación inicial; etapa central o de construcción del aprendizaje basado en la adquisición de conocimientos, actitudes y habilidades, y etapa final o de evaluación (AU)
