Abstract

In this article we deal with the convergences between the Program for Productive Inclusion with Sanitation Safety, promoted by the Brazilian National Sanitation Agency, and Food Security and Nutrition policies. We focus the relations between these policies and the making of a just and sustainable development model that prioritizes family farming and local processing and consumption of foodstuff as ways to healthier eating.

We approach, on the one hand, the processes of making, since the 1990’s, of the National Policy for Food and Nutrition Security as a strategic, articulated and priority aim in development strategies. On the other hand we approach the convergence of this processes and the Program for Productive Inclusion with Sanitation Safety, leading to the approval of RDC no. 49/2013. We focus on the connections between sanitation regulation, food consumption patterns, and social and economic development.

We emphasize participatory processes in the making of policies, involving dialogues between governments, civil society and social movements.
