    Novas substâncias psicoativas – políticas públicas e investig(ação)

    Propõe-se com esta conferência um envolvimento e discussão institucional que se revele determinante na construção de uma resposta nacional para o fenómeno das drogas “legais”. O CNJ considera muito importante abrir canais de comunicação institucional onde se promova uma reflexão política, académica e empírica para encontrar metodologias de intervenção eficazes de combate ao consumo destas novas substâncias, com particular atenção no consumo entre os jovens portugueses. Esta conferência é organizada pelo Centro de Investigação e Estudos de Sociologia do Instituto Universitário de Lisboa (ISCTE-IUL), em parceria com o Conselho Nacional de Juventude (CNJ), Instituto do Desporto e Juventude, I.P (IPDJ,I.P.) e Serviço de Intervenção nos Comportamentos Aditivos e nas Dependências (SICAD).

    Sexuality(ies) and citizenship(s)

    A  Revista Ibero-americana de Saúde e Cidadania/Iberoamerican publica uma edição especial sobre Sexualidade(s) e Cidadania(s). Os trabalhos devem abordar a importância da sexualidade na sociedade e na conceituação e definição de cidadania. Este número temático aborda a importância da visibilidade da diversidade sexual, a capacitação das diferenças, das minorias sociais e sexuais, e a necessidade de criar, projetar e estabelecer políticas sociais e de saúde pública que melhorem a situação social da diversidade sexual. Diversidade sexual e  cidadania são dois conceitos que fazem parte do desenvolvimento educacional e social de forma global e diversificada. Devem, por isso, ser analisados de forma multidisciplinar. Daí que se  pretenda uma abordagem das ciências da saúde, das ciências sociais e humanas e dos estudos de género das realidades sociais decorrentes de ambos os conceitos.

    Music, poetry and the brain

    It is indisputable that, with his operas, Wagner introduced profound new insights relating music, language (poetry) and emotion. It is widely consensual that with his dramas, Wagner intended to explore human mind and behaviour with the power of music. In fact, never before was music so systematically used as a tool for describing and interpreting facts, events, beliefs, desires, intentions, memories and emotions. In the last decades, there has been much advance in the understanding of the cerebral basis of music and its relationships with brain mechanisms of language, cognition and emotion. In short, music has also been shown to be a powerful pathway to understand human mind and behaviour...

    I iberoamerican congress of therapeutic recreation in pediatric oncology

    The recommendations of the International Society of Pediatric Oncology refer to the importance of investment in non-pharmacological approaches to handling pain and distress as important  components of treatment. In  this context, there are numerous benefits associated with the approach of Therapeutic Recreation strategies, innovative in Portuguese territory. Conceptually, the Therapeutic Recreation assumes promoting adaptation to changes that the patient faces in a context of hospitalization; it aims to restore the physical well-being, mental and emotional  health of the patient, intending to full recovery. The Holistic perspective often results in a more positive set of experiences by the patient and family in the management of illness and  hospitalization.
