This article presents the systematization of the
experience developed in the project ´´Education,
promotion and prevention of HIV and COVID-19´´, in the
residents of the Ciudad Belén and Villa Reconciliation
neighborhoods of District VII of Managua, during
September and October 2021. The project was
implemented by the Center for Health Research and
Studies CIES UNAN Managua, with the collaboration
and advice of the Nicaraguan AIDS commission
CONISIDA and financed by the Joint United Nations
Program on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS), within the framework
of the proposal ´´Strengthening community-based
organizations that work in Responses to HIV in Latin
America and the Caribbean, in the context of the
COVID-19 pandemic´´. Activities were carried out in 2
neighborhoods of District VII, Managua, Nicaragua,
in which prior to their execution, coordination was
established with community leaders of the key
populations of the sectors and people with HIV. Two
facilitators participated in each visit, who implemented
strategies for health promotion and prevention of
COVID-19 and HIV with 10 participating inhabitants
of the community in each meeting. It was possible
to exceed the number of beneficiaries, being a total
of 356 of 240 initially contemplated, among which
are men and women; teens and adults. The didactic
processes included interactive talks, use of visual
materials in flipchart format, broushurs; focused on
active community models such as focus groups and
home meetings, where health education, support groups and communities of conscious practices were
emphasized. The knowledge of the participants
in each educational intervention was qualitatively
evaluated through comments and reflective points of
view. Promote a constant training project on health
issues for this sector of the population so that they can
be transmitting axes of messages alluding to public
health.
