Objectives: to assess the knowledge and practices that stimulate social entrepreneurship in the professional training of Nursing students.
Methods: qualitative exploratory-descriptive study carried out with 44 Nursing students from a University in the South Region of Brazil. Data were collected between May and August 2021, through individual online interviews.
Objective: To implement and signify entrepreneurial interventions in Nursing, with a view to the social emancipation of women working in an Association of Recyclable Materials.
Method: Action-research with an intervention process based on an action alluding to Mother's Day, carried out in a pandemic period, with the participation of 28 women from a Recycling Association.
Results: The reflexive thematic analysis, which enabled the systematic recording of ideas, insights and the meanings of the intervention, gave rise to two categories: From apparent isolation to professional reinvention and from invisibility to dignity and the feeling of social equality.
