Abstract:

Objective: To identify in the scientific literature, affirmative care actions for the
afrodescendant population. Method: This is an integrative review of the literature, carried out in April 2017, at the Virtual Health Library, using Lilacs (Latin American and Caribbean Literature in Health Sciences) and Nursing. After taking into account the inclusion and exclusion criteria, ten articles were used and analyzed through an instrument. Results: After the study of the articles, nine affirmative actions were listed to promote care for the afrodescendant population in health. Conclusion: It is necessary, in both care and training spaces, to problematize the main demands against the context in which the black population is ed, as well as the affirmative care actions for the afrodescendant population in order to implement the principles of universality and integrality in health services in their fullness.
