Abstract

This article presents the outreach experience carried out by Psychology students from a Federal University, during the period of social distance to control the spread of COVID-19. The main purpose of the project “Bottles to the Sea” was to stimulate students to produce, for social networks, written or audiovisual material about the pandemic as a way of caring for people as well as coping with fear and the feeling of helplessness. The project was developed between April and June 2020, and one hundred and twenty-three students participated in this initiative. Thus, the purpose of this article is to reflect on the themes and the feelings that the participants went through due to the health crisis and social distance. The following is highlighted: the people’s homesickness, their daily life routine and the difficulties faced by them in the context of a health-political-economic crisis.
