[Health literacy, more than information].

چکیده
La alfabetización para la salud se ha tratado de forma extensa y con diversas perspectivas desde 1974, cuando en el marco de una conferencia sobre educación y salud el profesor Scott K. Simonds1 utilizó por primera vez el binomio. Desde entonces, no solo se ha puesto de relieve su importancia, sino que se considera una estrategia global2. Son muchas las definiciones que se han formulado y también las simplificaciones respecto a su aplicación, asimilando el concepto a facilitar información. En este editorial se pretende presentar diferentes aspectos que faciliten la comprensión del concepto de alfabetización para la salud, los actores involucrados y las condiciones necesarias.
