Abstract

Violence against women is a public health problem and a violation of human rights. In this study, we sought to report the experience of implementing an intervention project in the area of women's health applied in a Family Health Unit located in the interior of Bahia, through educational actions in health and professional training. Thus, it was discussed the need to formulate strategies that improve the assistance to women victims of violence in primary health care, especially actions that strengthen the network of care and empowerment of these women.
