The riverside population tends to have a high prevalence of sexually transmitted infections, related to behavioral and social vulnerabilities, especially low education, which makes it difficult to promote sexual health. In this sense, educational health technologies, when validated, are allies in the process of disseminating quality and safe information. Objective: This study aimed to elaborate and validate the semantics of a booklet on syphilis based on the knowledge of riverside women. Study methods: This is a methodological research carried out in three stages, namely: development of educational technology in health; application of the pilot test on the island of Maracujazinho, in the municipality of Acará and validation of the semantics by the target audience on the island of Combu, in Belém do Pará. Result: The elaboration stage was carried out based on the situational diagnosis, for the selection of the generating theme, and by an integrative literature review, which identified the booklet-type printed health educational technology as adequate to address the theme. In the pilot test, carried out with 22 riverside women, the technology was evaluated, where a semantic validity index equal to 1 was obtained, that is, with 100% agreement of the answers in all blocks of questions of the evaluation questionnaire. In the third stage, the semantic validation was carried out with 23 women from the island of Combu, where a semantic validity index of 1 was obtained, that is, 100% agreement using the same evaluation questionnaire as the pilot test. Conclusion:The educational technology needed adjustment only in the quality of the printing paper, its other requirements were considered appropriate and satisfactory. The booklet can be considered valid semantically to address the issue of syphilis with riverside women. In the future, the booklet will receive validation of the reliability and stability of the content by expert judges in the area of health and other higher education.
