Pós-Graduação senso estrito em Saúde Coletiva e o Sistema Único de Saúde

Abstract

This article deals with a public policy in education, Post Graduation in Collective Health, to identify forms of dialogue of this policy, with the public health policy, the SUS, starting in 1990. The main product of PGSC policy is the training of masters and doctors, essential for teaching and research in the field. Bibliographic review and analysis of CAPES documents and databases based the analysis. Education policy was consistent over time and core to social development, alongside health policy, without presenting formal points of intercession, and its impacts occur mainly through the formation of good and committed professionals, teachers and researchers. In PGSC, professional masters programs are more relevant, for a more direct link of postgraduate programs with the SUS, and the initiatives of the Ministry of Health to finance priorities in research for the Health System. Even ininitiatives that explicitly seek to approximate the knowledge produced by PG with praxis in the SUS, the mechanisms involved in translating or impacting scientific knowledge into concrete practice are complex and must be context specific andthematic.

Health policy and systems research publications in Latin America warrant the launching of a new specialised regional journal

“…Educational policies as well as research capacity strengthening in countries of LA have led to increased publications, particularly in open access journals. In Brazil, one of the major drivers of the increase in publications in HPSR was the expansion of graduate programmes, with articles focused on the area of collective health quadrupling in number between 1996 and 2016 [20]. In Mexico, graduate programmes in collective health, public health and specifically in health systems research were markedly strengthened between the mid-70s and the mid-80s [21].…”

Pleasure and suffering of professors in the post-graduation in nursing

“…The Brazilian Post-Graduation was structured to cooperate with the national development and there was a continuous growth of programs, degrees, and productions recorded (1) . In this scenario, the Post-Graduation in nursing is in a quantitative and qualitative expansion, which is evidenced, for example, by the increase of scientific productivity in journals with an Impact Factor in the area (2)(3) .…”
