Abstract

Resumo A Política Nacional de Promoção da Saúde (PNPS), institucionalizada no Sistema Único de Saúde em 2006, e revista em 2014, contou com a contribuição de vários núcleos existentes no país, entre eles o Centro de Estudos, Pesquisa e Documentação em Promoção da Saúde e Cidades Saudáveis (CEPEDOC), uma Organização não Governamental ligada à Faculdade de Saúde Pública da Universidade de São Paulo, hoje Centro Colaborador da Organização Mundial de Saúde. Esta colaboração iniciou-se antes da Política ser institucionalizada: houve participação na criação de subsídios teóricos e práticos que justificassem a sua existência e participação na mobilização e advocacia para sua criação. O objetivo deste artigo é demonstrar a participação independente do CEPEDOC, como uma ONG, na aplicação e revisão das teorias e princípios da Promoção da Saúde através projetos realizados, das produções científicas resultantes e dos relatos da participação em mobilizações que contribuíram para efetivação da PNPS como política e prática importante para a produção social da saúde com equidade.

Highlights

  • The Brazilian Health Promotion Policy (PNPS) was revised and published in 2014, and it states the general objective of promoting equity and improving life status and lifestyles, expanding the potential of individual and population health and reducing vulnerability and risks to health due to social, economic, political, cultural and environmental determinants

  • Plenty of resources are needed to carry out its mission, which surpasses the limits of the National Public Health System (SUS, for its acronym in Portuguese); the need for integration with other public policies and the support of society stand out, since the public health sector is not able to respond alone with actions on social, cultural, economic and environmental health determinants and conditions

  • The conception of territory applied to health promotion in Brazilian cities, would allow visualizing the fragmentation, the loss of identity and the acknowledgement of place by people, issues that need to be recovered and faced in the coming projects to be funded as a function of PNPS

Summary

Introduction

The Brazilian Health Promotion Policy (PNPS) was revised and published in 2014, and it states the general objective of promoting equity and improving life status and lifestyles, expanding the potential of individual and population health and reducing vulnerability and risks to health due to social, economic, political, cultural and environmental determinants. Plenty of resources are needed to carry out its mission, which surpasses the limits of the National Public Health System (SUS, for its acronym in Portuguese); the need for integration with other public policies and the support of society stand out, since the public health sector is not able to respond alone with actions on social, cultural, economic and environmental health determinants and conditions. One of the several national and international collaborators is the Center of Studies, Research and Documentation in Health Cities (CEPEDOC), which has played an active role in the revision process of the PNPS. CEPEDOC was established in the year 2000 and aims to promote the “social production of health” and social equity with other healthcare organizations, by using innovating, participatory strategies capable of fostering citizenship and social participation
