The research aims to analyze the experiences of school-age youth using a "WebRadio", through collective health themes in the promotion of Web care in nursing. The research is of the descriptive exploratory type. In 2014 and 2015, 217 young people from public schools in Ceará participated in the "In Tune with Health" outreach project, broadcast on the Web Radio. The actions were carried out by nursing students, masters and PhD students in nursing from the State University of Ceará (UECE). The interaction occurred through the Webradio, as well as through facebook, twiter, Whatsapp. The themes that emerged in the speeches of the youth were: symptomatology and prevention of dengue; historicity and epidemiology of leprosy; modes of HIV/AIDS contamination; transmission of viral hepatitis; HPV: symptoms, transmission and prevention; tuberculosis: transmission and symptomatology; chemical dependency and damage to human health caused by smoking. The project contributed to the construction of new knowledge with the students regarding the topics covered and the production of care in collective nursing.
