Intersectoriality in the promotion of school in health: a study of the Health in School Program

ABSTRACT

This study aimed to analyze Health in School Program in the health district of one of the Brazilian capitals adopting the intersectoriality approach in the school health promotion actions. This is qualitative and exploratory research based on case study that applied documental analysis as source of data collection. Results revealed that occasional and fragmented actions still occur in the integration between sectors, but also articulated proposals gradually emerge committed to intersectoriality and health promotion. Among the challenges, we highlight the need for monitoring and evaluating the program as for health promotion as well as active community insertion in the field.
