SOUSA, Rosa Gouvêa de et al. From Health to Education: from colonialised performances to confrontations. Educ. Real. [online]. 2024, vol.49, e134087. ISSN 2175-6236.  https://doi.org/10.1590/2175-6236134087vs01.

This study analysed a set of discourses from the Unified Health System (SUS) that intersects education and health in the context of work. The central focus of this debate lies in the permanent education proposed by the political-legal framework of the SUS, aiming at putting pressure on practices for a given transformation. Based on Maria Lugones’ arguments about work as a racialised element, attributed to gender and colonial imposition, the discourse of part of this framework was critically analysed. The use of the term transformative pedagogical act was questioned and reflections were made on considerations put forward by female workers who made it clear that such transformative intentions constitute disputes over the exclusion of bodies and knowledge.

Keywords : Education; Coloniality; Women Workers; Health.
