Abstract:

Food insecurity is a worldwide public health problem. In Brazil, the configuration of a Food and Nutritional Security (SAN) policy has gained prominence in the government agenda since 1980. We highlight the creation of the National Council for Food and Nutritional Security (CONSEA) aiming at articulation between sectors and social participation. This article examines the role of CONSEA in coordinating SAN policy in Brazil2006 to 2016. The research was based on the approaches of historical institutionalism and used the dynamics of action and the CONSEA agenda as axes of analysis. The methodological strategies carried out were: bibliographic review, document analysis and semi-structured interviews. It was observed that CONSEA was marked by an expressive performance by civil society and variable participation of representatives of public power. Regarding the agenda, conflicting topics were much debated, but had little impact on the adoption of legal and normative measures. It is concluded that the strengthening of CONSEA combined with the confrontation of economic interests, adequate financing and the performance of the State in social protection are essential for overcoming challenges, implementing the SAN policy and promoting the health of the population.
