The Unidade de Cuidados na Comunidade (UCC) of Santarém is promoting health education activities aimed at children, as part of the "Voz à Comunidade" project. The initiative aims to encourage the adoption of healthy lifestyles and strengthen participants' health literacy.

Participants are aged between 6 and 13, and the activities take place during the school holiday period. The project seeks to involve the child community in actions that promote healthy behaviors from an early age.

The UCC of Santarém is a unit of the Portuguese National Health Service dedicated to providing community health care, including health promotion and disease prevention actions. The "Voz à Comunidade" project falls within these community intervention competencies of the unit.
