FERREIRA, Mauro Luiz Schmitz et al. Feira de saúde do curso de medicina da UFRR: uma aproximação com a comunidade. Rev. Bras. Educ. Med. [online]. 2010, vol.34, n.02, pp.310-314. ISSN 1981-5271.

Health fairs held by the School of Medicine at the Federal University in Roraima (UFRR) aim to raise community awareness concerning improved quality of life based on prevention, orienting people for lifestyle changes and early diagnosis of diseases. The university also promotes greater exchange with the population of Boa Vista through this extension work, a highly relevant public utility service for academia and the local community. The range of lessons learned, documented through reports of experiences and case studies by health professionals, administrators, researchers, and students, provided an important stimulus for the debate on the limits and possibilities of the Family Health Program and interaction between medical students and the community.
