Resumo

Objetivo: identificar conteúdos relacionados com a Ecossaúde nos planos curriculares dos Cursos de Licenciatura em Enfermagem lecionados em Portugal. Método: análise documental, do tipo descritiva, com abordagem qualita-tiva. Dados recolhidos em 19 planos de estudos acessíveis online. Resultados: não existe referência nos planos de estudos ao conceito de Ecossaúde. De entre os princípios mais abordados surge o da equidade social e de género. Pouca visibilidade nos planos de estudos com conteúdos relacionados com a conexão entre saúde e ambiente, de-senvolvimento sustentável e participação. Denota-se a ausência de abordagem ecossocial no ensino de Enfermagem que prepare os futuros profissionais para os desafios complexos atuais, como a justiça social e as alterações climá-ticas. Considerações finais: identificou-se a necessidade de mudança de paradigma, nomeadamente ecocêntrico na educação de Enfermagem, podendo a Ecossaúde contribuir para expandir a visão tradicional do ensino, investindo na educação ecossocial para transformar o mundo.
