RESUMEN: Este arculo analiza comparavamente dos hitos en la historia
de la psiquiatría brasileña: el Hospital Colônia de Barbacena y el trabajo
de la médica Nise da Silveira. El objevo central de la invesgación es com-
parar estos dos eventos históricos, destacando los aspectos pedagógicos y
educavos del enfoque promovido por Nise en contraposición al ambiente
de abandono y medicalización del Manicomio de Barbacena. La discusión
se fundamenta en el Objevo de Desarrollo Sostenible 3 (Salud y Bienes-
tar), reforzando la importancia de práccas inclusivas en salud mental. Se
trata de un estudio cualitavo, exploratorio y bibliográco que reúne obras
clásicas, relatos históricos e invesgaciones contemporáneas. El Colônia
reeja práccas excluyentes, marcadas por el hacinamiento, el descuido,
el hambre y tratamientos limitados a pocos fármacos. En contraste, Nise
introdujo terapias no invasivas, como la pintura, la modelación y la convi-
vencia con animales, transformando el cuidado en una experiencia educa-
va. Se concluye que las práccas pedagógicas son indispensables para la
salud mental y deben integrarse en las polícas públicas.

ABSTRACT: This arcle comparavely analyzes two landmarks in the his-
tory of Brazilian psychiatry: the Colônia Hospital of Barbacena and the
work of physician Nise da Silveira. The central objecve of the research is
to compare these two historical events, highlighng the pedagogical and
educaonal aspects of Nise’s approach in contrast to the environment of
abandonment and medicalizaon at the Barbacena Asylum. The discus-
sion is grounded in Sustainable Development Goal 3 (Health and Well-
-Being), reinforcing the importance of inclusive pracces in mental health.
It is a qualitave, exploratory, and bibliographic study that brings toge-
ther classical works, historical accounts, and contemporary research. The
Colônia reects exclusionary pracces marked by overcrowding, neglect,
hunger, and treatments limited to a few drugs. In contrast, Nise introduced
non-invasive therapies such as painng, modeling, and interacon with
animals, transforming care into an educaonal experience. It is concluded
that pedagogical pracces are essenal to mental health and must be in-
tegrated into public policies.

RESUMO: Este argo analisa comparavamente dois marcos da história
da psiquiatria brasileira: o Hospital Colônia de Barbacena e o trabalho da
médica Nise da Silveira. O objevo central da pesquisa é comparar esses
dois eventos históricos, destacando os aspectos pedagógicos e educa-
vos da abordagem promovida por Nise, em contraposição ao ambiente
de abandono e medicalização do Manicômio de Barbacena. A discussão
é fundamentada no Objevo de Desenvolvimento Sustentável 3 (Saúde
e bem-estar), reforçando a importância de prácas inclusivas em saúde
mental. Trata-se de um estudo qualitavo, exploratório e bibliográco, que
reúne obras clássicas, relatos históricos e pesquisas contemporâneas. O
Colônia reete prácas excludentes, marcadas por superlotação, descaso,
fome e tratamentos restritos a fármacos. Em contraste, Nise introduziu
terapias não invasivas, como pintura, modelagem e convivência com ani-
mais, transformando o cuidado em experiência educava. Conclui-se que
prácas pedagógicas são indispensáveis à saúde mental e devem integrar
as polícas públicas.
PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Educação inclusiva. Saúde mental. Nise da Silveira.
Barbacena. Pedagogia terapêuca.
RESUMEN: Este arculo analiza comparavamente dos hitos en la historia
de la psiquiatría brasileña: el Hospital Colônia de Barbacena y el trabajo
de la médica Nise da Silveira. El objevo central de la invesgación es com-
parar estos dos eventos históricos, destacando los aspectos pedagógicos y
educavos del enfoque promovido por Nise en contraposición al ambiente
de abandono y medicalización del Manicomio de Barbacena. La discusión
se fundamenta en el Objevo de Desarrollo Sostenible 3 (Salud y Bienes-
tar), reforzando la importancia de práccas inclusivas en salud mental. Se
trata de un estudio cualitavo, exploratorio y bibliográco que reúne obras
clásicas, relatos históricos e invesgaciones contemporáneas. El Colônia
reeja práccas excluyentes, marcadas por el hacinamiento, el descuido,
el hambre y tratamientos limitados a pocos fármacos. En contraste, Nise
introdujo terapias no invasivas, como la pintura, la modelación y la convi-
vencia con animales, transformando el cuidado en una experiencia educa-
va. Se concluye que las práccas pedagógicas son indispensables para la
salud mental y deben integrarse en las polícas públicas.
