Abstract

The article presents the methodology used in building a panel of indicators for monitoring and evaluating the implementation of the National Policy for the Integrative Health of the Black Population (PNSIPN). The methodology was developed in four stages: scenario identification, implementation context, PNSIPN indicators and validation of the indicators. The proponents of the policy, street-level bureaucrats, technical advisors of the collegiate representing the managers, representatives of social movements, of associations and forums of pathologies participated in every stage. Those actors identified and agreed on the panel’s indicators, which have been categorized into indicators of coping with racism; indicators of sociodemographic conditions according to gender, age and race/color; and indicators of morbidity and mortality according to gender, age and race/color. The indicator panel for monitoring and evaluating the PNSIPN implementation is feasible and can be used at municipal, state and federal levels, possibly subsidizing the implementation process and enabling the improvement of management. The methodology contributes to the identification of indicators for public policies aimed at guaranteeing human rights, rights surveillance and advocacy.
