A comunicação e seus novos formatos de expressão, diálogo, mobilização têm modificado as dinâmicas sociais, principalmente com as tecnologias digitais. Ações sociais relacionadas à garantia e efetivação dos direitos à comunicação e à participação de adolescentes e jovens, pautadas nos princípios da educomunicação, estão desenvolvendo novos formatos de ação cidadã desse público na sociedade, mais democráticos, colaborativos, participativos, autônomos e criativos (SOARES, 2011). A partir dos objetivos de identificar a relação existente entre participação cidadã de adolescentes e jovens e a interface comunicação e educação e problematizar como as instâncias articuladoras de políticas estão construindo estratégias relacionadas ao paradigma educomunicativo para fortalecer a ação cidadã juvenil, a pesquisa analisou a experiência da Viração Educomunicação e da Rede Nacional de Adolescentes e Jovens Comunicadores (Renajoc) para entender as conexões que estabelecem entre a comunicação-educação e a participação infanto-juvenil, além de entrevistar 31 integrantes da Renajoc durante o V Encontro Nacional de Adolescentes e Jovens Comunicadores. Entre as principais conclusões, é possível perceber que os espaços e formatos de participação existentes não são suficientes ao perfil e necessidades sociais do jovem. O campo educomunicativo se propõe a pensar a participação e a comunicação menos como instrumentos e técnicas para o exercício cidadão e mais como direitos humanos fundamentais para o sujeito social e possibilita que a adolescência e juventude sinta-se integrante e ativa na construção de estratégias e espaços de ação para o bem comum. Os jovens valorizam os princípios que pautam as práticas do campo comunicação-educação, mas estão atentos para não formatarem a interface como única possibilidade de cidadania comunicativa ou de ativismo social. / The communication and its new formats of expression, dialogue, mobilization has changed social dynamics, especially with social technologies. Social actions related to the guaranty and enforcement of the rights to communication and participation of young people, guided by the principles of educommunication are developing new formats of citizen action from this public in the society, more democratic, collaborative, participatory, autonomous and creative (SOARES, 2011). Aiming to identify the relationship that exists between citizen participation of adolescents and youth and the communication-education interface; and problematizing how instances and politics articulators are building strategies related to the educomunicative paradigm to strengthen citizen participation of adolescents and youth, the research analyzed the experience of Viração Educomunicação and the Rede Nacional de Adolescentes e Jovens Educomunicadores (Renajoc - National Network of Adolescent and Young Educommunicators). Among the main conclusions, it is possible to perceive that the existing spaces and formats of participation are not addressing the profile and social needs of the young people. The field of educommunication intends to think the participation and the communication less as instruments and techniques for the exercise of citizenship, and more like fundamental rights for the social subject and enables adolescence and youth to feel integrant and active in the construction of strategies and spaces of citizen participation. Young people value principles that guide practices in the communication and education field but they are careful not to format the interface as a unique possibility of communicative citizenship or social activism.

<p>HIV counselling and testing (HCT) is an essential element in the response to the HIV epidemic. There are still major gaps in research about the best ways to provide HCT, especially to young people. School-based HCT is a model which has been suggested for providing HCT to young people in a youth friendly manner. This study was aimed at producing recommendations for providing a youth friendly school-based HCT service using the World Health Organisation (WHO) framework for youth friendly health services. It was conducted in six secondary schools in Cape Town, where a mobile HCT service is provided by a nongovernmental organisation (NGO). It was an exploratory descriptive study, using a mixed-methods approach. Twelve focus group discussions (FGDs) were held with learners to explore their needs with regards to school-based HCT. An evaluation (which consisted of observation of the HCT site, service provider interviews and direct observation of the HCT counselling process) was done to determine whether the mobile school-based HCT service was youth friendly. A learner survey was conducted with 529 learners to investigate the factors that influence the uptake of HCT and to explore learners&rsquo / behaviours and experiences under test conditions. In the FGDs, learners said that they wanted HCT to be provided in schools on condition that their fears and expressed needs were taken into account. They wanted their concerns regarding privacy and<br /> confidentiality addressed / they wanted to be provided with information regarding the benefits and procedure of HCT before testing took place / they wanted service providers to be competent to work with young people, and they wanted to be assured that those who tested positive were followed up and supported. On evaluation of the mobile school-based HCT service, it was evident that the service did not meet all the needs of the learners nor did it have all the characteristics of a youth friendly health service. The model of &lsquo / mass testing&rsquo / used by the NGO did not fulfil learners&rsquo / expressed need for privacy with regards to HCT. Service providers were friendly and non-judgemental but had not been trained to work with young people (especially marginalised groups e.g. young men who have sex with men). The information needs of learners were not addressed, and learners were not involved in the provision of the HCT service. Learners who tested positive were not assisted in accessing care and support. The learner survey revealed a high uptake of HCT (71% of learners) at schools with learners who do not identify themselves as Black, with female learners and older learners being more likely to have had an HIV test. Factors that influenced uptake of HCT were complex, with learners reporting many different motivators and barriers to testing. Of concern was the low risk perception of leaners with regards to HIV infection and the fact that learners who tested HIV positive were not being linked up with treatment and care. Based on the findings of the study, recommendations were made for providing youth friendly schoolbased HCT. A multisectoral approach, with learner and community involvement, was suggested in order to provide a service which is equitable, accessible, acceptable, appropriate and effective.</p>

Os alunos estão sob guarda judicial e em situação de vulnerabilidade social. Cumprem medidas socioeducativas de privação de liberdade, conforme prevê o Estatuto da Criança e Adolescente (ECA), Lei nº 8.069, de 13 de junho de 1990. Adolescentes e jovens privados de liberdade são, em geral, atores sociais encaminhados aos centros socioeducativos desprovidos de cidadania, do acesso aos direitos sociais e às necessidades básicas. Conhecer esses adolescentes e jovens é o primeiro passo para a construção de uma relação de confiança, fundamental para o diálogo que deverá ser estabelecido com esta pesquisadora. Trata-se de um estudo fundamentado na Teoria das Representações de Atores Sociais (VAN LEEUWEN, 1997). A expressão “atores sociais” é utilizada por Van Leeuwen (1997) para representar pessoas/indivíduos sob a ótica do discurso. Segundo o autor, os textos (discurso) são produzidos num sistema de contexto e cultura predefinidos e variam de acordo com o objetivo de quem fala ou escreve, pois as escolhas linguísticas constroem representações sociais. Fundamente-se também na teoria do Realismo Crítico (BHASKAR, 1998) e da Análise Crítica do Discurso (FAIRCLOUGH, 2001). Para o Realismo Crítico, a realidade social é compreendida como articulações das estruturas sociais e do agir humano; as estruturas são históricas e ao mesmo tempo independentes e conectadas, por ser uma totalidade complexa de relações sujeita a mudanças tanto em seus componentes estruturais (Real, Realizado e Empírico) quanto nas inter-relações com os diferentes estratos (biológico, físico, social, semióticos etc.), influenciando-se mutuamente. Fairclough (2001) considera o uso da linguagem uma forma de prática social e não uma atividade puramente individual ou situacional. Objetiva também compreender o cotidiano em que vivem esses jovens e adolescentes, sob o ponto de vista histórico, político, social e ideológico. A pesquisa tem como objetivos específicos: (1) Identificar e analisar as representações dos alunos acerca da escola, dos professores e da aprendizagem, aqui, nas produções escritas e nas entrevistas; (2) Analisar as categorias relevância da escola, aproximação com os professores e aprendizagem significativa materializados nas produções escritas e entrevistas dos alunos; (3) Identificar e analisar se há, ou não, (in)congruências nos textos escritos e orais dos alunos. O método analítico do discurso visa propor mudanças nas relações sociais de poder e opressão, presentes na estrutura social. A metodologia de pesquisa é qualitativa, de cunho etnográfico. Os resultados das análises esclarecem, por meio das produções escritas e entrevistas, a relevância da escola na vida de cada um, a aproximação com os professores por meio de suas práticas e a aprendizagem significativa. Conhecer esse contexto social é fundamental para saber se é um local de humanização, emancipação ou opressão, podendo proporcionar ou não condições de (ex)inclusão social. / This research aims to investigate the role of social actors, youth in the Boys State School of the Future, located in Cuiabá Socio Center (Complex Pomeri), linked to the Department of Justice and Human Rights of the State of Mato Grosso (SEJUDH). Students are under judicial custody and social vulnerability. Meet educational measures of deprivation of liberty, as required by the Child and Adolescent (ECA), Law No. 8069 of June 13, 1990. Teenagers and young people deprived of freedom are generally social actors referred to the deprived socio-educational centers citizenship, access to social rights and basic needs. Knowing these adolescents and young people is the first step to building a relationship of trust, essential for the dialogue to be established with this researcher. It is a based on the theory of representations of social actors (van Leeuwen, 1997) study. The term "social actors" is used by van Leeuwen (1997) to represent persons / individuals from the perspective of discourse. According to the author, the texts (discourse) are produced in a predefined context and culture system and vary according to the purpose of those who speak or write, because the linguistic choices construct social representations. Also is based on the theory of Critical Realism (Bhaskar 1998) and Critical Discourse Analysis (Fairclough, 2001). For Critical Realism, social reality is understood as articulations of social structures and human action; structures are historical and at the same time independent and connected, being a complex totality of relationships subject to changes both in its structural components (Real, Directed and empirical) and the inter-relationships with the different strata (biological, physical, social, semiotic etc.) influencing each other. Fairclough (2001) considers the use of language a form of social practice rather than a purely individual or situational activity. It also aims to understand the everyday living in these youngsters and adolescents, from the point of historical, political, social and ideological views. The research has the following objectives: (1) Identify and analyze the representations of students about the school, teachers and learning here in written productions and interviews; (2) Analyse the category relevance of school approach with teachers and materialized meaningful learning in written productions and interviews of students; (3) Identify and analyze if there is or not (in) consistencies in written and oral texts of students. The analytical method of discourse aims to propose changes in the social relations of power and oppression in the social structure. The research methodology is qualitative, ethnographic. The results of the analysis clarify, by means of written productions and interviews, the importance of the school in the life of each, the approach with teachers through their practices and meaningful learning. Knowing that social context is critical to know if it is a place of humanization, liberation or oppression, or not being able to provide conditions (ex) social inclusion.
