ABSTRACT
Objective: to conduct a course on Agroecology, with the creation of organic community gardens, training communities in health promotion and disease prevention, food and environmental educationMaterials and methods: the practical basis of the course is based on the pedagogy of the example, while the theoretical basis has three main pillars that will be disseminated in multiple subthemes, these being: Agroecological production and permaculture, food and nutrition education and alternative culinary techniques.
Results: this project allowed to identify farmers who stopped using agrotoxins using the biological control resource, allowing a remarkable increase in local biodiversity and stimulating the community to make gardens in their quintals, abandoned squares, unproductive lands, among others.
Conclusions: a great change observed was social empowerment and increased selfesteem, generated through the development of the modules and the observation of changes made by the collective. In addition to the development of collective discussion and production practices within the SUS.
