O programa integrar e a concepção de desenvolvimento Humano

Abstract

Brasil es el sexto país con más población mayor de 60 años. El "Programa Integrar: Creando un espacio para el desarrollo humano", del Departamento de Psicología de la Universidad Federal de Paraná, atiende a cerca de 140 ancianos con el objetivo de promover la resignificación de las relaciones del anciano con la sociedad y su identidad. Adoptando el referencial de la Psicología Socio-Histórica, considera al hombre un ser activo, histórico y social constituido en el campo intersubjetivo de las experiencias sociales y su posicionamiento fuera de la actividad juzgada productiva en el capitalismo, puede llevarlo a los márgenes de la sociedad. Con el objetivo de superar la concepción ideológica evolucionista del envejecimiento, éste pasa a ser visto como una fase continuada del desarrollo, que aún puede ser productiva y de calidad, y ya no como una fase terminal, marcada por el aislamiento social, la inactividad, el conflicto entre generaciones y la negación de los valores actuales. La metodología consiste en ofrecer conferencias, talleres, cursos, seminarios, debates, grupos de discusión, grupos de estudio, eventos sociales y culturales, que promuevan el aprendizaje, la concienciación, la expresión afectiva y cognitiva, el intercambio de experiencias, la socialización y la intergeneracionalidad, favoreciendo el desarrollo continuo y dialéctico del ser humano. Resultados alcanzados: mejoras significativas en la salud y en las relaciones familiares, socialización, intergeneracionalidad, amistades duraderas y verdaderas, participación en nuevas actividades y grupos, aprendizaje de nuevas tecnologías y contenidos, cuestionamiento del mundo y de su papel en la sociedad. Resultados académicos: graduados capaces de tratar con el público anciano, interdisciplinariedad, articulación de teoría y práctica y docencia, investigación y extensión.
