Abstract
This qualitative study aims to discuss the potential of Critical-emancipative Workshops utilizing the Tree of Knowledge as a facilitator strategy. The theoretical basis that constitutes this workshop was: the critical-emancipative education and empowerment; emotions as constructors of knowledge; the dialectical approach to transform reality and awareness; participation and shared responsibility. The study was conducted with 95 professionals working in 12 Family Health Staff in a city in the province of São Paulo, Brazil. The results indicate that the potential of the Critical-emancipatory Workshops relate directly to theoretical basis. The dynamics Tree of Knowledge used in the evaluation was powerful to reveal them. Thus, the workshops constitute an important tool for nursing in terms of their educational dimension, particularly, to face gender-based violence against women.
