摘要:The essay analyses how Paulo Freire’s philosophy and its appropriation by authors from Popular Educationin Health (PEH) re-signify care while dialoguing with the literature regarding this thematic. Firstly, wereflected on the notions underlying the Freirean ontology: valorization of popular knowledge and cultures,dialogue, respect, and lovingness. Next, we presented the comprehensions and assumptions of care inthe literature from PEH, also highlighting the proposed ways to confront the hegemony of biomedicine, aconception that reduces care to a set of technical procedures centered in the disease. The analysis showedthat care is assumed as a political act that through different ways must have a commitment with the worldconstruction that implies building an authentic life that allows overcoming the oppressions. Finally, weadded to the Freirean approach as word-action of care.
