Resumen
BORDE, Elis et al. Research capacities on social determinants of health in Brazil, Colombia and Mexico. Rev. Fac. Nac. Salud Pública [online]. 2016, vol.34, n.3, pp.330-341. ISSN 0120-386X. https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.rfnsp.v34n3a07.
Objective:
to analyze the research capacities on social determinants and social determination of the health-disease process
(SDH) in Brazil, Colombia and Mexico based on the characteristics of the National Systems of Science, Technology and Innovation (SNCTI) and the scientific production on SDH between 2005 and 2012.
Methodology:
an exploratory study was conducted. Data were obtained from literature reviews, the national platforms for each SNCTI, interviews and forums. The following categories of study were taken into account when analyzing capabilities: 1. Scientific production, training of researchers and policies concerning research capabilities. 2. Collaborative networks; 3. Infrastructure for research and 4. Production and social appropriation of knowledge.
Results and discussion:
research on SDH is primarily published in scientific journals. In Brazil and Colombia, findings are primarily published in national journals, while the majority of research on SDH from Mexico is published in international journals. All three countries have solid SNCTI. However, funding for research on SDH is scarce.
Conclusion:
it is necessary to coordinate actions to strengthen the capacities for research on SDH in order to strengthen networks and position SDH on strategic agendas.
