What is the Espiral Method?
The Espiral Method is a socio-educational approach developed and applied since 2008 in the prevention of violence and in the care of children, adolescents, families and professionals in the protection network.
Created from the master's thesis of psychologist Neusa Sauaia, the method is based on the activation of protective factors, the expansion of internal resources, and the cultivation of a new way of looking at individual and collective commitment in the prevention of violence.
