Abstract

Objective: The paper shows a health education action whose objective was to insert the sex education issue as a content addressed in the Geography discipline. Method: The topic was approached through workshops developed with the Geography teacher and included in the annual planning. The main themes permeated the spatialization of Sexually Transmitted lnfections, and their ways of prevention. Results: lt was possible to note that teaching geography oriented to sex education may contribute to the better protection of adolescents from the southern region of Brazil. lt was also confirmed that the insertion of sex education as a transversal theme in the geography curriculum is possible through a multidisciplinary approach between education and health professionals. Conclusion: ln the context of educating for health, it is possible to consider that students could learn from Geography healthier and more caring behaviors regarding their sex lives. Therefore, the authors believe they are meeting the urgent needs of empowerment of children and adolescents, aiming at prevention as a way to reduce the sexually transmitted infections in Brazil and worldwide.
