Abstract:

The female prison population is growing in the world. This population is been exposed to precarious conditions of confinement that often prevent or hinder access to quality food, effective and equitable, consisting of a relevant problem in public health. This paper aims to understand the aspects of food in the female penitentiary system of Paraíba. This is a research with a qualitative approach, developed in all the female\'s prisons of the state of Paraíba. The participants of this research are 16 women in the prison context. These results show that the context of incarceration makes it impossible to guarantee the right to food, concerning food availability, adequacy, accessibility and stability of supply. The condition of incarcerated women hurts the dimension of the right to food that refers to adequate food. Food for human beings must be understood as a process of transforming nature into healthy and citizenship people. For this, practices that promote the right for health alimentation must consider the principles related to this right and thus overcome discriminatory and authoritarian practices.
