PINTO, Joana Carneiro  and  PINTO, Helena Rebelo. Life projects in situations of social vulnerability: training for technicians. Rev. bras. orientac. prof [online]. 2016, vol.17, n.2, pp. 163-174. ISSN 1679-3390.

A research-action study is presented with technicians from Santa Casa da Misericórdia in Lisbon-Portugal, who develop their activity in the construction of life projects with people in situations of social vulnerability. The three stages of the process are described: 1. identification of participants' needs, expectations and problems in the exercise of their functions, 2. development and implementation of reasoned formative action, and 3. evaluation factors of (in)satisfaction associated with its application. Previous results indicate knowledge updating needs and final results indicate high satisfaction with training. This study provides important contributions to the development of policies for the training of these technicians, given the specificity of the recipients of their social and educational intervention.

Keywords : life projects; vulnerability; social skills; educational programs.
