Permanent Education in Health legitimized health education based on meaningful learning, experiences in daily work and collective problem solving, in addition to being based on the four-way approach, based on teaching, management, attention and social control. The COVID-19 pandemic has required new ways of doing health and education, especially in the prison system, where overcrowding is an impediment to social isolation. This study aimed to identify, through virtual conversation circles, the challenges encountered in daily work and discuss proposals for intervention with the actors of the prison system in the pandemic period, from the perspective of Permanent Education in Health. It was used a qualitative research approach with descriptive, interpretative and comprehensive analysis of the social phenomenon, through Minayo’s thematic analysis of content. From the thematic analysis of content, four categories emerged: challenges of health care in the prison system in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic; challenges for health management in prisons; dialogue between educational institutions and the prison system; and social control and family representation. The virtual conversation rounds provided in-depth discussions and collective constructions, proposing referrals based on the four-way approach of Permanent Education in Health.
