Abstract

This introduction presents the theoretical perspectives that underlie the studies and the chapters included in the book. The authors emphasize the innovative knowledge in social development based on research carried out in Brazil by the CEP-Rua and NEPA research teams, highlighting methodological aspects. This work considers different cultural contexts, histories, and processes that are essential for the understanding and implementation of research knowledge. It is hoped that the discussions presented in this book can bring answers to theoretical, methodological, and innovative questions for outreach, which consider the reality of vulnerability in Brazilian populations.
