Cidade, participação social e segurança alimentar e nutricional: o Conselho Municipal de Segurança Alimentar e Nutricional do Rio de Janeiro (Consea-Rio) na formação de uma agenda pública

Abstract

In this work we propose to understand the construction of the food and nutricional security agenda in the municipality of Rio de Janeiro through the food and nutricional security council of the city of Rio de Janeiro (Consea-Rio). To this end, we seek to provide the reader whith the articulation of three themes: the organization (spatial, political, economic and social) of the city of Rio de Janeiro in historical perspective; the construction and development of public policies for social participation, especially after the Federal Constitution of 1988; and the development of public debates and policies on food and nutricional security. Thus, linking a broad perpective on the city with the construction of democracy and the human right of to adequate food. The next step was to advance the understanding of the institucionalization of Consea-Rio and, based on the interviews of councilors, the observations made by the researcher and various matereials, seeking to understand how the agenda was formed (and/or modified) of SAN (food and nutricional security) in the city. We concluded this work seeking to connect the issues addressed and dialogue with the interested parties about the possibilities of action that could bring more quality to the social participation policy
