Abstract

In 2014, the National Health Promotion Policy (PNPS) underwent a participatory review process, with collaboration of public managers, participants of social movements, professors and researchers from universities. In this process, it was necessary to know and analyze how the contributions of the various actors involved occurred and how they were incorporated into the new version of the Policy. The aim of this study is to discuss the contribution of universities to the review of the National Health Promotion Policy. Using the Delphi technique, questionnaires were sent by e-mail to the research group leaders of the Brazilian universities; the e-mails were sent in two rounds, and the second round was only conducted after analysis of cases of consensus and dissent in relation to the first. Based on the analysis of the forms, it was concluded that the universities’ contributions to the new National Health Promotion Policy are related to its structure, principles and values, objectives, priority themes, and operational axes.
