ABSTRACT Introduction: Influenza is a global threat, with high epidemic potential and affects between 5 and 15% of the world's population annually. In the hospital environment, vaccination is crucial to protect healthcare professionals. However, despite international recommendations, vaccination uptake is low due to safety concerns and/or distrust. Studies show that vaccinated professionals have lower rates of absenteeism, and when infected with the virus, they present milder symptoms. In this work, a retrospective cross-sectional observational study is carried out on the vaccination rate against this disease in a population of hospital-based workers, from 2019 to 2023. To understand the importance of vaccination against Influenza in these workers and which behavioral determinants may justify considering this evolution, we carried out a review of the challenges of vaccination among health professionals and identified key points to develop strategies with the aim of promoting adherence to vaccination campaigns. Methodology: For the observational study, vaccination data from hospital health professionals by the Occupational Health Service was used, recorded on a specific form at the time of administration. Professional category was the only variable considered. Data analysis was performed using Microsoft® Excel®. For the review, the databases Medline, Science Direct and Google Scholar were used, with the keywords "Influenza vaccine”, “health professional” and “behaviour”, selecting studies from 2010 to 2024. From the result of 1277 works, the exclusion criteria, which included vaccination for other diseases and target populations that did not include health professionals, 22 bibliographic sources were selected. To reflect the national reality, articles on the topic published by the Revista Portuguesa de Saúde Ocupacional Online were included, as well as complementary studies and reference documents. Results: The study of adherence to flu vaccination in this hospital peripheral to Lisbon, between 2019 and 2023, showed a variation in vaccination adherence, with an average of 30%, a value below the ones reported in other countries. The categories most hesitant about this vaccine were Nursing Staff and Technical Assistants; at the opposite extreme, there was greater adherence from Medical Personnel and Technical Assistants. During the COVID-19 Pandemic, an increasing number of professionals were vaccinated annually, with this trend reversing after the end of the global emergency of this disease. From the review of the literature on vaccine hesitancy, 8 of the 14 behavioral domains stand out that represent theories of behavioral change that constitute modifiable factors that influence behavior in relation to the vaccine. We approach each of them from this perspective, namely: knowledge, the environmental context and resources, social influence, beliefs and knowledge about consequences, beliefs about individual capacity, identity and social/professional role, reinforcement and emotion. Discussion: Flu vaccine hesitancy among healthcare professionals can be a cause of morbidity and mortality for patients. Understanding the barriers and motivation for healthcare professionals to adhere to flu vaccination campaigns is crucial. Professionals who are asymptomatic carriers become sources of transmission. Annual vaccination, although safe and effective, faces variability due to antigenic concordance. In Portugal, educational and communication strategies are vital, highlighting the role of health professionals as models of preventive behavior. Easy access to medical consultations and Occupational Health recommendations is associated with greater adherence. In times of pandemic, the propensity for vaccination has increased, and it is important to promote this change. Strategies adapted to the cultural context are essential to boost adherence to Influenza vaccination among healthcare professionals. Conclusion: The approach to combating barriers and promoting vaccination among healthcare professionals must involve multiple areas and multiple levels, with communication targeted at specific groups, to increase its effectiveness. The message must be adapted to different population groups and different levels of health literacy. Knowing these behavioral determinants can help develop vaccination promotion campaigns from new perspectives and finding strategies to increase vaccination coverage is crucial for Occupational Health Services. Due to the ethical characteristics of the professions involved in providing direct care to patients, there is a need to reinforce the idea that vaccination among healthcare professionals is not only for their benefit, but above all for the protection of their patients.

RESUMO Introdução: A Gripe é uma ameaça global, com alto potencial epidémico e afeta anualmente entre 5 a 15% da população mundial. No ambiente hospitalar, a vacinação é crucial para proteger os Profissionais de Saúde. No entanto, apesar das recomendações internacionais, a adesão é baixa devido a preocupações de segurança e/ou desconfiança. Estudos mostram que os profissionais vacinados têm menores taxas de absentismo e, perante infeção pelo vírus, apresentam sintomatologia mais ligeira. Neste trabalho é realizado um estudo observacional transversal retrospetivo da taxa de vacinação contra esta doença numa população de trabalhadores de base hospitalar, no período de 2019 a 2023. Para compreender a importância da vacinação contra a Influenza nestes trabalhadores e quais os determinantes comportamentais que podem justificar esta evolução, realizou-se uma revisão dos desafios da vacinação entre Profissionais de Saúde, para identificar pontos chave e elaborar estratégias com o objetivo de promover a adesão às campanhas de vacinação. Metodologia: Para o estudo observacional da taxa de adesão à vacinação contra a Gripe num hospital periférico foram utilizados os dados de vacinação dos Profissionais de Saúde disponibilizados nos registos do Serviço de Saúde Ocupacional. A categoria profissional foi a única variável considerada. A análise dos dados foi realizada com o Microsoft® Excel®. Para a revisão recorreu-se às bases de dados Medline, Science Direct, Google Scholar; com as palavras-chave "Influenza vaccine”; “health professional” e “behaviour" e filtraram-se estudos de 2010 a 2024. Resultaram 1277 trabalhos e, após aplicar os critérios de exclusão, que incluíam vacinação para outras doenças e populações alvo que não os Profissionais de Saúde, foram selecionadas 22 fontes bibliográficas. Para espelhar a realidade nacional foram incluídos os artigos sobre o tema publicados pela Revista Portuguesa de Saúde Ocupacional Online, assim como estudos complementares e documentos de referência. Resultados: O estudo da adesão à vacinação contra a Gripe neste hospital periférico a Lisboa, entre 2019 e 2023, mostrou uma variação na adesão à vacinação, com uma média de 30%, valor abaixo dos valores reportados noutros países. As categorias com maior hesitação a esta vacina foram o Pessoal de Enfermagem e os Assistentes Técnicos. Na situação oposta estavam o Pessoal Médico e os Assistentes Técnicos. Durante a Pandemia COVID-19 existiu um número crescente de profissionais vacinados anualmente, tendo esta tendência invertido após o fim da emergência global desta doença. Da revisão da bibliografia sobre a hesitação vacinal destaca-se 8 dos 14 domínios comportamentais que representam as teorias de mudança comportamental que constituem fatores modificáveis que influenciam a atitude em relação à vacina. Abordou-se sobre esta perspetiva cada um deles, nomeadamente, o conhecimento; o contexto ambiental e recursos; influência social; crenças e conhecimento sobre consequências; bem como sobre a capacidade individual; identidade e papel social/profissional; reforço e emoção. Discussão: A hesitação vacinal contra a Gripe entre Profissionais de Saúde pode ser uma causa de morbilidade e mortalidade para os doentes. Compreender as barreiras e motivação para a adesão dos Profissionais de Saúde às campanhas de vacinação contra a Gripe é crucial. Profissionais portadores assintomáticos, tornam-se fontes de transmissão. A vacinação anual, embora segura e eficaz, enfrenta variabilidade devido à concordância antigénica. Em Portugal, estratégias educacionais e de comunicação são vitais, destacando o papel dos Profissionais de Saúde como modelos de comportamento preventivo. O acesso fácil a consultas médicas e tal ser recomendado pela Saúde Ocupacional é associado a maior adesão. Em tempos de pandemia, a propensão à vacinação aumentou, importando promover esta mudança. Estratégias adaptadas ao contexto cultural são essenciais para impulsionar a adesão à vacinação contra a Gripe entre Profissionais de Saúde. Conclusão: A abordagem para combater as barreiras e promover a vacinação nos Profissionais de Saúde deve envolver múltiplas áreas e vários níveis, com uma comunicação dirigida a grupos específicos, para aumentar a sua eficácia. Deve adaptar-se a mensagem aos diferentes grupos populacionais e aos diferentes níveis de literacia em saúde. Conhecer estes determinantes comportamentais pode ajudar a desenvolver campanhas de promoção da vacinação a partir de novas perspetivas e encontrar estratégias para aumentar a cobertura vacinal é crucial para os Serviços de Saúde Ocupacional. Pelas características éticas das profissões envolvidas na prestação de cuidados diretos aos doentes, existe a necessidade de reforçar a ideia de que a vacinação entre Profissionais de Saúde não é apenas para seu benefício mas, acima de tudo, para proteção dos seus doentes.

ABSTRACT Environmental pollution presents significant challenges that need to be addressed through environmental education and, therefore, in educational strategies. Environmental education empowers individuals to adopt sustainable behaviors. Educational strategies, such as environmental programs and innovative approaches, promote environmental education and cultivate environmentally engaged citizens. Integrating this education into the curriculum and society generates collective awareness and promotes the protection of the natural environment. This article is a comprehensive and structured review of the most recent studies related to various educational techniques and methodologies focused on increasing environmental awareness in school settings. The research design is qualitative and of a systematic theoretical nature. The documentary analysis technique was employed. Various scientific databases, such as MyLOFT, Google Scholar, Scopus, SciELO, Web of Science, and ProQuest, were reviewed for scientific publications from 2019 onwards. The PRISMA methodology was also used. The results obtained from the analysis of various research studies provide strong and significant data that firmly support the existence of a positive relationship between environmental literacy and environmental awareness among students and members of an educational community. These results are attributed to the implementation of strategies, models, and proposals that have contributed to improving environmental awareness in the school environment.

Abstract In this paper, we analyzed an educational experience that combined the Photovoice technique and Psychodramatic Pedagogy, combined with work with languages from the perspective of multiliteracies, for the critical training of adolescents. Through an interdisciplinary project developed via ICTs, we aimed at broadening and integrating students’ vision of three-dimensional care: self-other-environment. We developed the project with students from the 1st and 2nd grades of Technical High School Education in the countryside of Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil, in 2021, during the Covid-19 pandemic, a moment when the need to look at myself, myselfyourself, and ourself-environment relationships became even more evident. Through Photovoice records, the participants produced multisemiotic texts using a mix of languages and digital media. For this article, we selected the stages of the teaching project, which was organized into four phases: non-specific warm-up, specific warm-up, dramatization and sharing. For analysis purposes, we used the multiliteracies proposal and the four knowledge processes: experiencing the new; conceptualize with theory; apply creatively; and critically analyze. The analyzes allowed us to observe the development of critical skills regarding socio-environmental issues that impact the daily lives of the participants. paper Pedagogy adolescents ICTs threedimensional three dimensional care selfotherenvironment. selfotherenvironment self other environment. environment self-other-environment st nd Sul Brazil 2021 Covid19 Covid 19 Covid-1 pandemic myself myselfyourself ourselfenvironment ourself evident records media article phases nonspecific non warmup, warmup warm up, up warm-up sharing purposes processes new theory creatively analyze socioenvironmental socio environmental 202 Covid1 1 Covid- 20 2

Resumo Neste trabalho, analisamos uma vivência educacional que combinou a técnica Photovoice e a Pedagogia Psicodramática, aliadas ao trabalho com linguagens na perspectiva dos multiletramentos, para a formação crítica de adolescentes. A partir de um projeto interdisciplinar, desenvolvido por meio de TDICs, buscou-se ampliar e integrar a visão dos estudantes acerca do cuidado tridimensional: eu-outro-meio ambiente. O projeto foi desenvolvido com alunos de 1º e 2º anos da educação profissional técnica de nível médio, no interior do Mato Grosso do Sul, Brasil, em 2021, durante a pandemia da Covid-19, momento em que se evidenciou ainda mais a necessidade de olhar para o “eu”, para as relações “eu-outro” e para as relações “nós-meio ambiente”. A partir dos registros fotográficos com o Photovoice , os participantes produziram textos multissemióticos utilizando a mixagem de linguagens e mídias digitais. Para este trabalho, selecionamos as etapas do projeto de ensino, o qual foi organizado em quatro fases: aquecimento inespecífico, aquecimento específico, dramatização e compartilhamento. Para efeito de análise, utilizamos a proposta dos multiletramentos e os quatro processos do conhecimento: experienciar o novo; conceitualizar com teoria; aplicar criativamente; e analisar criticamente.

Abstract Background Body image is the mental representation of the body and can be influenced by cognitive, biological, behavioral, sociocultural, and environmental factors. University students often encounter challenges related to it. Objective This systematic review examined interventions aimed at holistically developing a positive body image within this population. Methods The PRISMA 2020 guidelines and the PICO method were employed to identify, select, assess, and synthesize studies. The consulted databases included Scopus, Web of Science, and PsyclNFO, with inclusion criteria targeting body image interventions for university students aged 18 to 39. Study quality was evaluated using the QATSDD tool. Results Twenty-one relevant studies were identified, primarily from the United States, mostly employing quantitative methods, with a focus on female participants. Various intervention strategies were utilized, including cognitive-behavioral approaches, media literacy, and physical/resistance training, with a growing use of technology like mobile applications. The majority of studies reported effective outcomes, such as reduced body dissatisfaction and increased self-esteem following interventions. Nevertheless, literature gaps were identified, such as the scarcity of formative interventions and limited use of qualitative approaches. Conclusion While technology in interventions offers promising opportunities, careful assessments and judicious selection of evaluation instruments are fundamental for reliable results. Future research should focus on addressing identified gaps, such as exploring more formative interventions and incorporating qualitative methodologies to provide a more comprehensive understanding of the effectiveness of body image interventions among university students. cognitive biological behavioral sociocultural factors it population 202 identify select assess Scopus Science PsyclNFO 1 39 tool Twentyone Twenty one States methods participants utilized cognitivebehavioral approaches literacy physicalresistance physical resistance training applications outcomes selfesteem self esteem Nevertheless opportunities results 20 3 2

Project-based learning has received a lot of attention in academia across all education levels as one of the pedagogical approaches with the potential to promote scientific literacy and the development of work-related knowledge, skills, and competencies. Through mixed methods, this descriptive study assessed chemistry students' perceptions about a project design experience in response to the following research questions: What lessons can be drawn from students' perceptions about conceptualising a research project? What are students' perceptions about the inclusion of research projects as part of their learning in chemistry? Likert scale questionnaires and open-ended questionnaires were used to collect data. Quantitative data were analysed through descriptive statistics to establish patterns, while qualitative data were analysed through conventional content analysis. Findings show that most students were able to design their own projects with minimal assistance. Environmental concerns, curiosity and concepts from other courses were primary factors that influenced students' choice of projects. However, the conceptualisation of the research projects by students showed some challenges and lack of coherence, which were attributed, in part, to students' lack of experience in both research and experimentation. Nonetheless, students recommend the inclusion of projects as part of their learning because of the opportunities they experienced. The study concludes that project design stage is critical and exposes students to essential elements of project-based learning, should be introduced early and be supported with resources and adequate supervision. Adoption of project-based learning has the potential to help students acquire and develop skills readily applicable to address real-life problems.

BACKGROUND: This article describes how the National Reading Barometer project has redefined the concept of 'reading culture' in South Africa. OBJECTIVES: As expressed in the 2023 National Reading Survey (N = 4250) and the 2023 National Reading Barometer, a clearer description of reading cultures was developed to describe both individual reading practices (measured through the survey) and the national reading ecosystem (measured through the barometer). METHOD: We describe the survey and statistical tools developed to measure the new concept of reading cultures. This includes a survey questionnaire that introduced novel questions alongside established indicators. Reading is defined and measured through six distinct dimensions: reading purpose, habits, volume, depth, motivation, and identity. The expanded understanding of reading purpose includes reading for information, communication, and enjoyment. At an ecosystem level, the National Reading Barometer was applied to visualise data from the National Reading Survey and secondary data on reading ability, access to reading material, and enabling environmental indicators to provide a baseline for high-level longitudinal trends in the national reading environment. RESULTS: The National Reading Barometer and National Reading Survey assisted to redefine the debate on reading cultures by providing evidence-based descriptions of varied reading cultures and situating these within the reading ecosystem. CONCLUSION: We conclude by proposing how this revised concept of reading cultures and the new tools for measuring impact may open research and policy advocacy opportunities in the literacy sector. CONTRIBUTION: This article contributes a pluralistic, Afrocentric, and modernised understanding of reading cultures.

Abstract The main objective of this theorization is to reflect on human care, starting from the identification of the paradigmatic crisis and the changes required to move from a biomedical model to a transforming model based on human care science. The methodology was a theoretical study of reflection based on the theory of human care and the cosmocene ecological theory. The main results show that the ontological understanding models expand the vision of human health care to a vision that involves an understanding of the care of the environment, they are an important contribution to the field of human and health sciences that can serve to guide new ways of being and acting. It is concluded that it is in the concept of unitary ontological literacy where nurses have skills that imply awareness, reflexive and intentional ways of being that lead to the healing and fulfillment of patients, family members, colleagues, and the environment. In the health area, understanding the need for a change towards care philosophies allows us to move towards health-generating paradigms.

Resumen El objetivo principal de esta teorización es reflexionar sobre el cuidado humano, a partir de la identificación de la crisis paradigmática y los cambios requeridos del paso de un modelo biomédico a uno transformador basado en la ciencia del cuidado humano. La metodología fue un estudio teórico de reflexión amparado en la teoría del cuidado humano y la teoría ecológica cosmocena. Los principales resultados dan cuenta de que los modelos de compresión ontológica amplían la visión del cuidado humano de la salud a una visión que involucra una comprensión del cuidado del ambiente, son una importante contribución al campo de las ciencias humanas y de la salud que puede servir para orientar nuevas formas de ser y actuar. Se concluye que es en el concepto de alfabetización ontológica unitaria donde las enfermeras y enfermeros poseen competencias que implican conciencia, formas de ser reflexivas e intencionales que conducen a la curación y plenitud de pacientes, familiar, colegas y el ambiente. En el área de salud, comprender la necesidad de un cambio hacia filosofías de cuidado, permite ir hacia paradigma generadores de salud.

Abstract Children’s literature (CL) is important for the development of the field because it encourages critical thinking and reflection. It can also contextualize elements of environmental education (EE) and advance scientific literacy (SL). We believe it is possible to seek literature that can aid in the early stages of the SL and EE processes in terms of cultural expansion for the child, but how do we know if that or another piece of literature can aid in this process? We specifically designed a literature analysis matrix with this bias for this purpose. Furthermore, we believe that text analysis demonstrates that the teacher is motivated to promote students' understanding of science and its social acceptance. We understand that, when teachers analyze a text, they manage to recognize that, at the rate they are interested in stimulating an understanding of science and its recognition in social spaces, CL can be explored without having to use it didactically, as a likely enhancement of student access to culture, including the culture of science.

Resumo A Literatura Infantil (LI) tem papel importante na formação do sujeito e pode contextualizar aspectos da Educação Ambiental (EA), contribuir para o Letramento Científico (LC) e Alfabetização Científica (AC), pois estimula a criticidade e a reflexão. Na perspectiva de ampliação cultural da criança, acreditamos na possibilidade de buscarmos literaturas que possam auxiliar na iniciação ao processo de LC/AC e EA; no entanto, como saber se aquela ou outra literatura pode ajudar nesse processo? Com essa finalidade, construímos uma Matriz para análise de literatura com esse viés. Entendemos que, ao fazer a análise do texto, o professor consiga reconhecer que, à medida que tenha interesse em estimular a compreensão sobre a Ciência e o reconhecimento dela no meio social, pode se valer do recurso da LI, sem ainda a necessidade do uso didático dela, como uma possibilidade de ampliação do acesso dos alunos à cultura, incluindo a científica.

Food security is an enduring sustainability challenge in the Southern African region. Food availability, accessibility and affordability have profound health impacts and affect the quality of life of a substantial proportion of the world's population. This article aims to explore, together with students in educational settings, questions about the relationships between food and health, including the contextual conditions of food availability, accessibility and affordability. This provides opportunities to re-embody food by contextualising it as part of natural and built environments, thus engaging with how challenges of human health intersect with animal and environmental health. The research centres on co-creating knowledge with youth based on their valued beings and doings about health and considers how their health goals relate to food and the sustainability challenges of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). By considering how youths' understandings, evaluations and decisions regarding health, including setting health goals, intersect with the determinants of food, we come to consider their health literacy capabilities to achieve non-predetermined health goals that align with their valued beings and doings. As such, the implementation gap between knowing and doing is bridged through practices of health and well-being contextually grounded in the lives and experiences of the student youth.

Resumen El estudio descrito en este artículo intenta determinar la relación existente entre el involucramiento en el aprendizaje de idiomas y la alfabetización crítica de 34 estudiantes de noveno grado de una escuela pública de Caquetá, Colombia. Se realizó una investigación acción participativa y se usaron los siguientes instrumentos de recolección de información: entrevistas grupales, cuestionarios y artefactos escolares. Las experiencias de los estudiantes en relación con temas sociales informaron la práctica de alfabetización crítica para proporcionar a los aprendices las herramientas necesarias para enfrentar los problemas que ocurren en su comunidad. Los resultados de esta investigación sugieren que la práctica de una alfabetización crítica compromete a los estudiantes en el proceso de aprendizaje desde unas dimensiones cognitivas, sociales y emocionales. Este enfoque crítico juega un papel crucial en activar la disposición de los estudiantes para enfrentar el aprendizaje de un idioma y contrarrestar las emergentes dificultades para aprender.

Abstract This research paper seeks to determine the connection between language learning engagement (LLE) and critical literacy in 34 ninth-grade students from a public high school in Caquetá, Colombia. A Participatory Action Research study was conducted, consisting of group interviews, questionnaires, and student artifacts. Students’ experiences of local social and environmental issues informed the critical literacy practice to provide learners with tools to examine problems occurring in their community. The findings emerging from this research suggest that the practice of critical literacy engages students in learning from the cognitive, social, and emotional dimensions. This critical approach plays a pivotal role in activating students’ motivation to persevere with language learning and tackle learning-related difficulties.

Résumé L'étude décrite dans cet article tente de déterminer la relation entre l'engagement envers l'apprentissage des langues et l'alphabétisation critique chez 34 élèves de neuvième année d'une école publique du Caquetá, Colombia. Une recherche-action participative a été menée et les instruments de collecte d'informations suivants ont été utilisés : entretiens de groupe, questionnaires et artefacts scolaires. Les expériences des élèves en relation avec les problèmes sociaux ont éclairé la pratique critique d'alphabétisation pour fournir aux apprenants les outils nécessaires pour faire face aux problèmes survenant dans leur communauté. Les résultats de cette recherche suggèrent que la pratique de la littératie critique engage les élèves dans le processus d'apprentissage à partir des dimensions cognitives, sociales et émotionnelles. Cette approche critique joue un rôle crucial en activant la préparation des élèves à faire face à l'apprentissage des langues et en neutralisant les difficultés d'apprentissage émergentes.

Abstract: Climate change education is a field in constant growth and tension, in which a participatory tradition oriented towards change coexists with another focused on climate literacy and the knowledge provided by technical experts. This has meant that research does not consider the opinions of the participants in these interventions in a timely manner. In this context, this study describes five workshops and discussion groups carried out with 145 participants from three Chilean school programs for climate change education, analyzing their perspectives in relation to the emotions they feel regarding this phenomenon, the mitigation and adaptation actions that they know, as well as the strategies and characteristics that education for climate change would have for them. Descriptive statistics were applied to a series of closed individual responses, as well as a content analysis to a series of open collective responses. A large majority of negative emotions were identified, but high hope regarding the future that awaits us because of climate change. A confusion between climate and environmental actions, placing most of these at the local level, above those carried out in the educational community or at the national level; great importance is given to the use of renewable energies, to local environmental management actions, to dissemination campaigns and environmental communication; it is recommended to work on the subject of the future with emotional responsibility and information, and is emphasized the need to use playful methodologies, participatory activities, audiovisual records and outdoor environmental education. Finally, the importance of introducing the notion of experienced experts in the management of these educational interventions is concluded. This is to actively include the opinions and perspectives of the participants in climate change education.

Resumen La educación para el cambio climático es un campo en constante crecimiento y tensión, en el que conviven una tradición participativa orientada al cambio y otra enfocada en la alfabetización climática y los saberes que entregan los expertos técnicos. Esto ha hecho que las investigaciones no consideren oportunamente la opinión de los participantes de estas intervenciones. En este marco, el presente estudio describe cinco talleres y grupos de discusión realizados con 145 participantes de tres programas escolares chilenos de educación para el cambio climático, analizando sus perspectivas en relación con las emociones que sienten respecto de este fenómeno, las acciones de mitigación y adaptación que conocen, como también las estrategias y características que tendría la educación para el cambio climático que ellos/as quisieran construir. Se aplicaron estadísticos descriptivos a una serie de respuestas individuales cerradas, como también un análisis de contenido a una serie de respuestas colectivas abiertas. Se identificó una gran mayoría de emociones negativas, pero una alta esperanza respecto del futuro que nos depara el cambio climático; una confusión entre las acciones climáticas y ambientales, situando la mayoría de estas a nivel local, por sobre aquellas realizadas en la comunidad educativa o a nivel nacional; se le da gran importancia al uso de energías renovables, a acciones de gestión ambiental local, a campañas de difusión y comunicación ambiental; se recomienda trabajar el tema del futuro con responsabilidad emocional e información, y se destaca la necesidad de utilizar metodologías lúdicas, actividades participativas, registros audiovisuales y salidas de educación al aire libre. Finalmente, se concluye la importancia de introducir la noción de expertos por experiencia en la gestión de estas intervenciones educativas, con el fin de incluir activamente las opiniones y perspectivas de los participantes de la educación para el cambio climático.

RESUMO Propósito: neste trabalho, nos dedicamos às virtudes, tendências e possibilidades disponíveis na literatura brasileira sobre a formulação de indicadores na área da Ciência da Informação aplicáveis à competência em informação. Estamos interessados em reconhecer, por meio de teorias e conceitos sobre indicadores sociais e de vulnerabilidade social, quais podem servir à avaliação da competência em informação. Material e métodos: pesquisa com abordagem qualitativa, bibliográfica e documental, e para a estruturação e análise dos dados bibliográficos e documentais, utiliza a redação descritiva, pela via da categorização. Resultados e conclusões: os primeiros resultados fornecem um mapeamento das virtudes e tendências disponíveis na literatura brasileira sobre indicadores na área da Ciência da Informação aplicáveis à competência em informação e apontam que indicadores de pobreza, insegurança alimentar e desenvolvimento humano (e de vulnerabilidade social) e indicadores ambientais, podem servir à avaliação da competência em informação. Também já se percebe que é pela via do acesso (a informações e serviços, por exemplo) que se pode empreender uma conexão útil à utilização de indicadores na avaliação da competência em informação.

ABSTRACT Purpose: in this work, we focus on the virtues, trends, and possibilities available in the Brazilian literature on the formulation of indicators in the area of Information Science applicable to information literacy. We are interested in recognizing, through theories and concepts about social and social vulnerability indicators, which can serve to assess information literacy. Material and methods: research with a qualitative, bibliographic and documentary approach. The structuring and analysis of bibliographic and documentary data, it uses descriptive writing, through categorization. Results and conclusions: the first results provide a mapping of the virtues and trends in Brazilian literature. These indicators in the area of Information Science applicable to information competence. They point out that indicators of poverty, food insecurity and human development (and social vulnerability) and environmental indicators can serve to assess information competence. It is also already apparent that it is through access (to information and services, for example) that a valuable connection can be made to the use of indicators in the assessment of information literacy.
