Gest？o de desastres e política de assistência social

this article reflects on the risk management system in the municipality of blumenau, santa catarina, through actions undertaken by the social assistance policy. it used a plural approach that articulated document analysis to qualitative techniques, such as participant observation. previously conducted studies about risk were examined as a constructed process that contributed to the intensification of socio-environmental disasters in the region. it found that the lack of integrated and participative planning results in fragmentation of actions, an absence of interdisciplinarity and a gap between administrators, technicians and those affected.
