A instalação do Comitê de Assessoramento da Enfermagem (CA-EF) no CNPq

Abstract

The National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq) is an agency of the Ministry of Science and Technology (MCT) dedicated to the promotion of scientific and technological research and to the human resource training for research in this country. Its organizational structure includes an Executive Board, responsible for managing the institution, and a Board, responsible for institutional policies. In order to perform, the CNPq count on the participation of the scientific and technological communities for its management and policies through the Advisory Boards. They are in charge of examining, judging, selecting and monitoring the applications for research projects and for human resource training. The members of the Board are nominated as head and substitute and are selected according to their area of expertise and knowledge. They are elected periodically by the Board based on consultation to the national scientific-technological community. The mentioned committees represent the areas of knowledge that actively participate in the development of science Nursing-like other areas-is included in the agency. Its insertion took place first through deliberations and exchange of views, and later as a member of the Multidisciplinary Advisory Committee of Health (CA-MS). In those days, this committee was integrated-in addition to nursing-by one member of each of the following areas: odontology, physical education, fonoaudiology, physiotherapy and occupational therapy. In 2004, the CNPq accepted substitute members in their committees. At that time, the responsible member to represent Nursing in CA-MS was PhD Alacoque Lorenzini Erdmann (UFSC), who immediately requested a substitute to be appointed after consulting the community. My name was chosen by the Board for this position. The diversity of the composition of CA-MS and the stages of maturity and consolidation of the areas that comprised it, generated a movement that demanded the CNPq to recognize these differences and to divide the committee. This action within the CA-MS grew and matured, involving representatives from the corporate organizations of the areas of knowledge. As a result, in July 2005, the Advisory Board of Dentistry was created. And in June 2006, the Advisory Board of Nursing (CA-EF) was also established. The areas already mentioned became permanent members of CA-MS. With the creation of the CA-EF, a consultation to the scientific community and to the board took place. They agreed to indicate three head members and one substitute member. Professor Alacoque-at that moment a head member-remained in the committee. I became a substitute member (for the length of the term of the responsible member 10/2006 to 9 / 2009).
