Objectives of the Brazilian case study
•Analyzing the process to formulate these public actions initiatives aiming to promote health;
•Analyzing how such initiatives may be included in a more global future strategy to face this problem and to formulate an integrated policy for NCD prevention and control in Brazil;
•Identifying elements that facilitate or impair the formulation and approval of policies in this area;
•Subsidizing the formulation of an integrated policy for NCD prevention and control in Brazil;
•Analyzing the Brazilian results compared to the NCD prevention and control policies formulation processes in Costa Rica and Canada.

Surveillance OrganizationThe beginning of worry to control the smoking habit started with the
figures showing the increase of mortality caused by chronic-degenerative diseases, including cancer, that began to gain international visibility in the 1970´s when the process of epidemiological transition in the patterns of mortalitity in the population became clearer;
In 1990, the World Health Assembly convocated its Member States to adopt urgently comprehensive strategies to control the tobacco consumption;
The National Institute of Cancer, with the mission to consolidate a National Policy of Cancer has the smoking habit as its priority because this practice is one of the main risk factors associated to some types of cancer;
The conscientization of a big part of the population about the impact of smoking habit in the health;
Brazil’s adhesion to the Global Strategy on Diet, Physical Activity and Health, promoted by the WHO, whose main focus is the integrate attention to prevent and control the NCDs.

Surveillance Agenda and the NCD prevention
2003: creation of the CGDANT
Structuring of NCD Surveillance System and its Risk Factors (RF) and Protector Factors (PF)
Management (Regulamentation, sponsoring, human resources, social control and participation, responsability, sustainability
Intervention to prevent (health promotion, interface with assistance, intersectoriality, integrality)
Evaluation and Research support

Political, economic and social contexts
The Brazilian redemocratization process triggered, in the 1980’s, a progressive social movement towards public policies, specially the related to health;
The New Federal Constitution of 1988 – health as a human right matter;
The 8th Nacional Health Conference, the most important event of the last decades under a sanitary and political point of view;
Regulamentation of SUS (Unified Health System);
Health Organic Law, Federal Law number 8080;
The 1st Nacional Seminar on Epidemiological Surveillance, in 1992
12
Political, economic and social contexts
In 1999, the movement inside the Ministry of Health to structure the NCDs surveillance area;
In 2003, the Global Forum of NCD Surveillance and Control, in Rio de Janeiro;
Brazilian participation in the Global WHO Strategy - 2004;
13
Ideas and interests
Strong social demand since the mid-1980’s, when started an international movement to control the risk factors associated to smoking habit and obesity in many countries;
Pression of the critical mass of expertise from institutions especialized in collective health put the subject insided the debates of the Ministry of Health;
Intersectorial work inside the Ministry of Health in order to support the NCDs prevention initiatives is fundamental to consolidate the surveillance actions in the area;
Consolidation of the CGDANT-General Surveillance Coordination of Non-Communicable Diseases and Damages.
14
Surveillance actions promoted by the WHO and PAHO in other countries are useful to structure the surveillance in Brazil.

•The silent advance of the chronic diseases in the work force suggested the importance of the establishment of actions aimed to promote health;
•The international AGENDA indicates to Brazil the necessity to formulate strategies to insert the NCD theme in the governmental agend;

ConclusionsThe creation, in 2003, of the Health Surveillance
Secretariat, and the General Surveillance Coordination of Non-Communicable Diseases and Damages aimed to fill an important space inside the Brazilian Health Service;
The regulamentation of the Health Surveillance Secretariat strenghtned the surveillance system and possibilitated the formulation of comprehensive and inclusive governmental strategies in the whole Brazilian territory;
The integration of the data base, the analyses of health situations, the production of studies about the perspectives of the health problems were the strenghtning basis for the NDC Prevention and Surveillance in Brazil.
18
ConclusionsThe international agenda strengthens the establishment of
actions aimed to promote health among the Brazilian population;
Beginning of the establishment of directives aimed to combat sedentarism, promote physical activity, health diet and good health maintenance;
Awareness about the relevance to call the attention of the population about the importance of a good diet and physical activity practice as a preventive factor against the NCDs;
