EDUCACIÓN PARA LA SALUD: TRANSVERSALIDAD Y SISTÉMICA

The health, considered a value throughout the history of the humanity has been undergoing modifications throughout the time, modifications that are derived from the context and of the time in which we lived. Thus, the one that a value is something preferable for the subject, is a preference that arises from the own social immersion of the individual, and of the relations that maintain with different institutions and human groups. This way, each one of us can have an individual concept of the health, but we do not forget that this concept does not arise only like individual option, but that is in narrow relation with the understanding that of this value is had at social level.
The Education for the Health, from the perspective of the promotion and prevention, and from the systemic point of view must help the self-organization of the individual before the information that come as much from external means, like of the internal one.
