The concept of health advocacy is presented by means of a description of its elements, practice and agents. The need to formulate this concept derives from one of the main functions of the university: the identification of social demands and the presentation of alternatives that aim at eliminating obstacles to their fulfillment. Social participation, as guaranteed by the 1988 Constitution, understood as an opportunity for the development of mechanisms for the construction of citizenship, especially as related to the conquist of the right to health, is emphasized.
健康倡导的概念是通过对其要素、实践和推动者的描述来呈现的。形成这一概念的必要性源于大学的一项主要职能：识别社会需求并提出旨在消除实现这些需求障碍的备选方案。强调了1988年宪法所保障的社会参与，将其视为发展公民建设机制的机会，特别是与争取健康权相关的机会。
