The aim of this research is to inform about the different meanings street youth give tothe use of inhalants, in the city of La Paz -Bolivia. The study draws on two sources:visual and written material produced by them in creative workshops and subsequentdialogues with participants. Through a collaborative data collection methodology,preliminary findings were presented and discussed with participants to deepen in themeaning construction of inhalant use. We found meanings are neither static norgeneralizable, but dynamic and particular to each participant´s experience. Moreover,meanings are constructed in relation to different physical and social spaces with whichthey interact –such as welfare institutions, street groups and society in general- to resistsocial exclusion. We argue that greater interaction with social contexts different fromthe street can affect the frequency of consumption, decreasing the use of this kind ofdrugs. Further research is needed to confirm this latter point, in order to beimplemented in intervention designs. |
