Intersectoriality or sectorial dialogues? Reflections based on the experience of the Projeto Teias-Escola Manguinhos, Rio de Janeiro

The study of public policies can be construed as an interdisciplinary domain, which brings the focus of attention to its sectorial dialogue. In this sense, the health area provides ample theme material, and is capable of unifying the other areas. The Projeto Teias is born in the borough of Manguinhos as a proposal for an intersectorial public policy, despite the disagreements regarding its formulation. The goal of this article is to contribute to the contemporary debate of the intersectoriality, exploring mainly its frailties and dilemmas, in order to place it within a possible and new theoretical-empirical reference, based on the experience in the Projeto Teias-Escola Manguinhos.
