Area of Science:

  • Social Sciences
  • Health Professions Education

Background:

  • Diversity is increasingly recognized as crucial in health professional training.
  • Essentialist views of difference are insufficient for understanding complex social dynamics.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the incorporation of diversity into Brazilian National Curriculum Guidelines (DCN) for medicine and psychology.
  • To explore how social sciences concepts inform the understanding of diversity in health education.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of DCN for undergraduate medicine and psychology programs in Brazil.
  • Review of recent studies on diversity in health professional training.
  • Application of intersectionality as a theoretical framework.

Main Results:

  • Diversity is present in DCN but requires deeper integration.
  • Intersectionality provides a robust framework for analyzing multiple differences in health education.
  • Challenges exist in translating curricular guidelines into practice.

Conclusions:

  • Health professional training must adopt a nuanced, intersectional approach to diversity.
  • An analytical framework integrating discourse, practice, and social relations is needed.
  • Further research is essential to address diversity challenges in health education.
