The book presents reflections from the perspective of Health Promotion, looking for evidence that can be used to design Physical Education programs for the elderly. The theoretical framework used appropriates a view of health in its broadest context, transcending the reductionist tendencies inherited from the biomedical tradition of considering health in a negative way, linked exclusively to disease prevention. Considering this problem, the book presents the results of a wide-ranging field study, the objectives of which were: a) to analyze and evaluate the environment (socio-cultural, historical and geopolitical) and personal characteristics (physical, functional and desires/preferences) of the participants in the Elderly Living Groups in the municipality of Marechal Cândido Rondon - PR; b) to verify the implications of these evaluations for the creation of a Physical Education model in the light of the Health Promotion idea. The research showed that a wide-ranging assessment of various aspects related to the environment is essential if the actions of pedagogical practice are to transcend the systematized practice of physical activity in a Physical Education program for the elderly.
