Abstract: Nursing requires rigorous technical training to ensure safety and effectiveness. In this context, the present study reports the development and application of a low-cost simulator as a teaching-learning strategy, integrating theory and practice in a safe environment. The project was carried out by undergraduate nursing students from Uninta Fortaleza College, as part of the activities of the course Semiology and Nursing Techniques II. Using accessible materials such as styrofoam, syringes, latex, EVA foam, and dye, the students created functional simulators for peripheral venipuncture training. The initiative was expanded into an outreach activity in a public high school located in a socially vulnerable area, aiming to promote the nursing profession and spark vocational interest among students. A total of 30 students from the second and third years of high school participated and reported satisfaction with the experience, highlighting the activity’s playful, safe, and educational nature. The use of the simulator was considered effective for practicing the technique and as a tool to connect with the professional reality of nursing. The project reinforces the role of simulators in practical training, contributing to the development of clinical competencies, while also promoting the appreciation of the profession and the democratization of education through accessible resources. The experience also provided nursing students with a reflective space on their role as social transformation agents in health care. It is concluded that initiatives such as this strengthen critical and humanized nursing education and expand the social impact of higher education.
