The HIV / AIDS is considered, as a complex health problem, extensive to treat and it does not yet have cure. The present investigation try to tackle about the risks that the members of the focus group present according to their knowledge, beliefs, attitudes and sexual practices in the Shuar community. The main objective of this investigation was to describe the knowledge, beliefs, sexual attitudes and practices related to HIV / AIDS. The participants were 5 people with ages between 22 and 50 years old. The information collection was done through the use of structured interviews. The results show that people are unaware of HIV/AIDS and do not know the risk to which they are exposed due to lack of prevention, an early diagnosis, an ineffective medical assistance, and this is affected mainly by scarce information. There are risk behaviors related to liberality versus sexual relations, highlighting the departure of men to the consumer society. This exposure to risk could improve considerably, through the intervention of health personnel, to apply educational, preventive measures to promote responsible sexual relations.

Objetive: Analyzing the conceptions of Saraguro healers with respect to health hybridization.

The interviews were recorded and then transcribed to word for processing, the Atlas.ti program was used. The triangulation was carried out with a university expert in ancestral medicine subjects and the bibliography consulted. Results: The healers of Saraguro keep their ancestral worldview in the phenomena of health-disease, in some practices expressions of other cultures coexist, this hybridization in health shows Andean knowledge with elements of Western medicine and religious order.
