RESUMO
Este artigo trata da proposta da Organização Pan-Americana de Saúde (Opas) para a prevenção da violência, seguindo as orientações do Informe Mundial sobre Violência e Saúde da Organização Mundial de Saúde (OMS). Por meio dessa reflexão, os autores diferenciam a abordagem da segurança pública (geralmente fundamentada na repressão) do foco com que a Saúde Pública trata do tema, com os tradicionais conceitos que constituem seu patrimônio promoção da saúde, prevenção de lesões e de traumas físicos e emocionais, e fortalecimento da cidadania. Os autores mostram que o setor saúde já vem definitivamente assumindo o tema, mas falta ainda muito para que adquira um lugar de destaque como outros agravos à saúde da população contemporânea. O texto termina articulando a prevenção da violência com as metas do milênio que, em última instância, concitam a sociedade para os direitos humanos, a solidariedade e a qualidade de vida.
ABSTRACT
This article deals with the proposal of the Pan American Health Organization for the prevention against violence, following the precepts of the World Report on Violence and Health of the WHO. In this analysis the authors distinguish the approach of public safety (generally based on repression) from the way public health approaches this issue, based on the traditional concepts that constitute its patrimony promotion of health, prevention against lesions and physical and emotional injury, and the strengthening of citizenship. The authors show that the health sector has already embraced the issue definitively but that even so the problem is still far from occupying the outstanding place it deserves in the public health agenda, together with other health problems of the contemporaneous populations. The text concludes with establishing a link between prevention against violence and the millennium development goals, which in principle urge society for taking action towards human rights, solidarity and quality of life.
