The Instituto Projeto Neymar Jr. organized an educational lecture on Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) for participants of the Tripulantes INJR program. The initiative was part of the institution’s health promotion efforts and aimed to provide adolescents with reliable information about prevention, self-care, and overall well-being.
The session was led by Dr. Philipe Saccab, coordinator of the Institute’s Health Center, who presented information about the most common sexually transmitted infections, methods of transmission, preventive measures, and the importance of maintaining regular healthcare practices. The content was delivered in a way that was accessible and appropriate for the age group involved.
Throughout the lecture, participants had the opportunity to learn more about topics that are particularly relevant during adolescence, a stage characterized by physical, emotional, and social development. The activity also provided a space for questions and discussions regarding personal responsibility, health awareness, and informed decision-making.
Health education is widely recognized as an essential component of youth development. Access to accurate information helps young people develop healthy habits, reduce risks, and strengthen their ability to make informed choices regarding their well-being and future.
During the meeting, discussions emphasized the role of prevention and knowledge as important tools for protection and quality of life. The initiative encouraged participants to reflect on responsible attitudes and the value of seeking information through trustworthy and supportive environments.
Creating safe spaces for dialogue and learning is considered an important aspect of adolescent development. By offering educational opportunities focused on health-related topics, the institution expands access to information and supports the development of skills that can positively influence different areas of young people’s lives.
The lecture also highlighted the role of the Institute’s Health Center as a resource dedicated to guidance, prevention, and ongoing support for beneficiaries. Through regular educational activities, the department promotes awareness and encourages healthy behaviors among participants and their families.
Through initiatives such as this, Instituto Projeto Neymar Jr. continues to strengthen its integrated approach to social development, combining education, health, sports, and community engagement. Educational activities focused on adolescence contribute to the development of informed, responsible, and empowered young people.
