Abstract

El sistema de salud cubano ocupa un lugar privilegiado en el mundo, por lo que constantemente nos encontramos enfrascados en la búsqueda de soluciones para lograr la excelencia en los servicios integrales de salud, como parte de estos objetivos no podemos obviar el trabajo sistemático en la promoción y prevención de salud, como parte de la Extensión Universitaria. Nuestro trabajo se encuentra encaminado a crear agentes de cambio social para que los adolescentes de la comunidad del Consejo Popular 10 de Octubre, que apadrinamos, asuman una actitud cada vez más conciente ante aspectos relacionados con la sexualidad humana. Para ello hemos aplicado métodos teóricos y empíricos, y hemos desarrollado un conjunto de tareas que nos han permitido experimentar algunos resultados, aunque no podamos considerarlos significativos.

Palabras clave: SEXUALIDAD HUMANA/ adolescentes; PROMOCICIÓN EN SALUD/ prevención; EDUCACIÓN POR LA SALUD.
