Sérgio Luiz de Moura

Dover Locality, sergio.moura{at}ekentmht.nhs.uk

English

This article reports on social environments for the implementation of interventions aimed at preventing street life among young people in Sâo Paulo, Brazil. The findings suggest the prospect of prevention of street life, which focuses on families and communities in this context, is hardly feasible. Public institutions are identified as the most suitable localities for preventive interventions.

Cet article explore les environnements sociaux les plus appropriés pour mener des interventions visant à empêcher la vie de rue parmi les jeunes à São Paulo, Brésil. Les résultats suggèrent qu'une perspective de prévention mettant l’accent sur les familles et les communautés est à peine appropriée dans ce contexte. Les établissements publics sont identifiés comme étant les endroits les plus appropriées pour mener des interventions préventives.

Se señalan las instituciones públicas como los lugares más adecuados para intervenciones preventivas.
