NaGeS Research Group
Narratives, Gender & Health
This research group brings together researchers engaged in different themes and contexts. The interface between social psychology, social communication, and collective health is present in the theoretical discussions of the group, as well as other issues of interdisciplinary dialogue. Narratives, whether as a method or as a reflexivity exercise, provide collaborative practices among professors, students (undergraduate, master's and doctoral students), postdoctoral researchers, and technicians who are group members. Another characteristic of the group is the commitment to the scientific production that is articulated with extensionist and professional practices, weaving interlocutions between the university, civil society, and public policies in different sectors.

Political subjectivation in the trajectories of young feminists
(CNPq; FAPEMIG)
The central objective of this research is to analyze processes of political subjectification in the trajectories of young feminists who use online and/or offline strategies in the construction of their militancy. The narrative methods support the theoretical-methodological perspective, in triangulation with specific strategies of data collection and analysis. Research conducted in collaboration with researchers of the Federal University of Pernambuco (UFPE), Federal University of São João del Rei (UFSJ) and Eduardo Mondlane University, Mozambique (EMU).
Previous projects
Research projects in interface with university extension, developed in interinstitutional partnerships.
