Objectives: to analyze school (re)inclusion of an adolescent cancer survivor before/after participatory health education with adolescents. Methods: qualitative and participatory research that included data from the medical record of an adolescent rhabdomyosarcoma survivor and Talking Map dynamics (to diagnose the demand for learning and assess changes). The body-knowledge dynamics were applied in the educational intervention. In a public school in Rio de Janeiro, the adolescent (reference case) and nine people (four teachers and five teenagers) generated empirical materials, which became the content analysis objects. Results: strangeness to changes in an adolescent cancer survivor’s body image, bullying, and acceptance were problematized in educational body-knowledge dynamics through relationships between changes and barriers to welcoming. The participatory educational process was essential in raising awareness by promoting re-inclusive actions. Conclusions: participatory-problematizing education contributed to constructing a new collective identity and improvement in school interaction among peers.

Objective: to analyze nurses’ resignification of the needs of family members of children with cancer in institutional Facebook® communities. Method: participatory research developed with the Speak Map and Body-Knowledge dynamics of the Sensitive Creative Method in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, conducted between 2019 and 2020. Nine specialist nurses in pediatrics and oncology participated in groups of three to four people. Thematic analysis was applied in the treatment of the data. Results: dynamic virtual communities favor family members of children with cancer in the search for support, solidarity, and information. In that space, they share experiences of illness, success, losses, and mourning. Challenges mark the community; the nurse can act as mediating information since prepared to interact with ethical responsibility and scientific knowledge. Conclusion: In the resignification, these communities are recognized as spaces for dialogue, expanding the locus of action and empowerment of nurse educators and advocates of the best interests of these children.
