MACHADO, Dinair Ferreira et al. Addressing Violence against Women in Medical Education: an Experience Report. Rev. Bras. Educ. Med. [online]. 2016, vol.40, n.3, pp.511-520. ISSN 1981-5271.  https://doi.org/10.1590/1981-52712015v40n3e00642015.

The following article is an experience report on the incorporation of the theme of violence against women in the medical curriculum. The objectives of this study were to describe the theoretical framework of the theme of violence against women and to identify the learning activities acquired by students. The module activities were developed throughout 10 weekly meetings with groups of 12 students, and are as follows: (a) read a study case of a woman in a violent situation and perform a literature review; (b) conduct visits to Primary Health Care Services and a Specialized Reference Center for Social Assistance; (c) systematize theoretical and practical data for strategic planning; and (d) present the activities developed to other student groups. At the end of the module, four relevant learning activities were identified in terms of women’s health: (a) the influence of socio-cultural and psychosocial phenomena in the health-disease process; (b) the importance of comprehensive care; (c) the Family Health Strategy as a facilitator in detecting and monitoring cases; and (d) violence against women as a relevant public health problem in the medical curriculum and training.
