Comida e pobreza: repercussões do Programa Bolsa Família na alimentação de beneficiárias do Distrito de Caatinga Secamuritiba- Ba

Abstract

The aim of this study is to understand how the Family Grant Program has passed the power beneficiary families in a rural area of the Reconcavo Baiano. For this, we analyzed the programs and initiatives for food in Brazil, starting from the contributions of Josué de Castro to the expansion of Bolsa Família with Brazil Without Poverty Plan. We weave considerations about the concept of Food and Nutritional Security and Human Right to Food, doing a little historical background of the evolution of these concepts and also on the transfer of income in Brazil. Finally, we analyzed the interviews from the Food Security and Nutrition definition and confront the challenges and advances that the Bolsa Família Program brings its effectiveness.
