ABSTRACT:
Public health emergencies demand increasingly complex, coordinated, and rapid responses, reinforcing the need to train professionals with technical, communicational, and organizational competencies aligned with the principles of collective health. This study examined how active learning methodologies have been applied in training for emergency response, based on 33 studies retrieved from the Virtual Health Library, of which seven met the inclusion criteria, prioritizing empirical research, educational interventions, and emergency-related contexts. The findings show that strategies such as clinical simulation, in situ simulation, collaborative learning, multimodal training and theoretical–practical exercises enhance knowledge retention, develop critical abilities, and strengthen interprofessional work. Interventions delivered in schools, primary health care units, prehospital services and community settings demonstrated positive effects on work organization and team readiness. However, persistent challenges remain, including the lack of permanent training policies, structural inequities, limited infrastructure, and scarce standardized evaluation. The study concludes that active learning methods constitute a powerful tool to improve emergency preparedness and response within health systems, especially when integrated with surveillance actions, permanent education, and coordinated care networks.
