• ROSEANE MOREIRA SAMPAIO BARBOSA - Barbosa, RMS - RIO DE JANEIRO, - Universidade Federal Fluminense, Faculdade de Nutrição/Departamento de Nutrição Social - <roseanesampaio@id.uff.br>
O estudo analisou as ações de prevenção e controle da obesidade infantil, especialmente as de Promoção da Alimentação Adequada e Saudável (PAAS), que integram Políticas do governo federal brasileiro nos últimos 15 anos. Foram analisados todos os documentos que apresentam ações de PAAS no âmbito das políticas de saúde e segurança alimentar e nutricional a partir das seguintes dimensões: (1) a abordagem das ações de PAAS; (2) os condicionantes da obesidade que pretendem afetar e (3) as potenciais disputas de interesses. As principais ações de PAAS identificadas visam fomentar: a educação alimentar e nutricional; os sistemas produtivos de base agroecológica; a agricultura familiar; a acessibilidade alimentar; os ambientes saudáveis e as ações regulatórias. Essas ações interferem em diferentes condicionantes da obesidade infantil, apresentam distintas concepções sobre o problema e afetam distintos interesses. Destacam-se as disputas entre os interesses das corporações comerciais de alimentos processados e do agronegócio e os setores governamentais e societários norteados pelos objetivos de PAAS. As ações voltadas para a regulamentação das compras e espaços públicos, além da publicidade de produtos não saudáveis para crianças, são as que melhor expressam os interesses em disputa.

Abstract:
This study analyzed the actions of prevention and control of childhood obesity, especially those of Healthy and Adequate Eating Promotion (PAAS), which have been part of the policies of the Brazilian federal government in the last 15 years. All documents presenting PAAS actions in the scope of health and food and nutritional security policies were analyzed from the following dimensions: (1) the approach to PAAS actions; (2) the conditioners of obesity that they intend to affect and (3) the potential disputes of interests. The main actions of PAAS identified aim to promote: food and nutritional education; agroecological based production systems; family farming; food accessibility; healthy environments and regulatory actions. These actions interfere in different determinants of childhood obesity, present different conceptions about the problem and affect different interests. We highlight the disputes between the interests of the commercial corporations of processed foods and agribusiness and the governmental and corporate sectors guided by the objectives of PAAS. The actions focused on the regulation of purchases and public spaces, as well as the publicity of unhealthy products for children, are those that best express the interests in dispute.
