Section Title:
Health in Brazil
Section Info:
Health in Brazil: diversity, inequalities and public policies is a unique course that explores one of the world's most fascinating public health systems through the lens of equity, diversity, and social justice. Brazil is a country of continental proportions characterized by great ethnic diversity and marked by profound regional inequalities. From a demographic perspective, the population has been aging rapidly in recent decades, creating a complex epidemiological profile where infectious diseases coexist with conditions associated with the aging process. Although Brazil has developed the world's largest universal public health system—the SUS—access to rights and services remains deeply unequal across lines of race, class, and geographic location. This undergraduate/graduate seminar examines Brazil through the lens of inequality, analyzing—based on recent empirical research—how public policies (or the lack thereof) shape social outcomes, while considering both successes and structural limitations, particularly in the fields of health and education.
