title: [Minimal standards in the practice of health education--a pioneer project].
abstract: PAHO/WHO sought an institution which could be asked to prepare a definition--in concrete, operational terms--of the basic responsibilities and areas of activity of the health professionals in charge of the educational actions appropriate to the health system. The School of Public Health (Health Education area) of the University of S. Paulo accepted this responsibility for the study of the definition of the health educator's role. This article sets out some of the positive results which have arisen, as a result of that study, over the two last years.
