Overview

This book presents a study carried out with six teenagers of both sexes, aged between 14 and 17, in a social project in the city of Bauru, in the interior of São Paulo. The interviewees take part in the 'Projovem Adolescente' (Teenage Youth Project), which is now a service for social interaction and the strengthening of bonds. It exists in areas of high social vulnerability, with the aim of working on skills such as: social interaction, the citizenship issue and the world of work. The research was instrumented by Amedeo Giorgi's (1985) phenomenological method, resulting in the resonances of the 'Projovem Project' in the existence of young people, who were analysed in the light of the Heideggerian understanding of existence. Through this work, the possibility of descriptive-analytical material for professional clinical practice emerges, as well as the political and social contributions of psychology based on Heidegger's existential phenomenological understanding. The results obtained point to the significant contributions of Projovem in the existence of adolescents, towards more satisfactory existential horizons in various dimensions of daily life and future directions through the bonds established there.
