Abstract:

The objective of this work was to identify, within the scope of state and municipal management, the planning, organization and control of food and nutrition actions for the population deprived of liberty in the prison environment, in the state of Paraíba. This is a documentary, qualitative research, carried out from November 2022 to June 2023 through analysis of 292 State management instruments and six municipalities in Paraíba with public access. .A careful textual analysis of the management instruments referring to the period 2011 to 2022 was carried out, followed by content analysis, emerging the following categories: the legal guarantee for the implementation of food and nutrition actions in the prison system and food and nutrition actions in the prison system . It was possible to observe that either there is no or superficial recording of the planning, organization and control of food and nutrition actions, compromising the health care process and revealing that Primary Health Care in the prison context has not fulfilled its structuring role in the organization and sustainability of the Unified Health System, with regard to food and nutrition.
