A organização na oferta e distribuição de kits de alimentos durante a pandemia aos discentes do ensino médio integrado em uma instituição pública federal do sul do país

Abstract

The guarantee of food as a right, provided for in article 6 of the Federal Constitution, is to ensure universal service under the National School Meal Program for basic education students. In April 2020, shortly after the start of social isolation resulting from the Covid-19 pandemic, Law No. 13,987 authorized, on an exceptional basis, the distribution of foodstuffs to students who were away due to the suspension of classes. The Farroupilha Federal Institute provided students of integrated secondary courses and beneficiaries through a notice with donations of Food Kits acquired by the National Student Assistance Program. Therefore, the objective was to analyze how the organization and distribution of food kits by the Instituto Federal Farroupilha during this time of adversity happened, to the families of integrated high school students. More specifically, the following objectives guided our work: We analyzed the documents that supported and regulated the distribution of food kits during the pandemic, by IFFar; We verified how the organization and distribution of food kits occurred during the Covid-19 pandemic in the perception of IFFar nutritionists; We verified the importance of distributing food kits to families and students during the pandemic and finally built the educational product, referring to the theme that supported the dissertation. The methodology applied was characterized as qualitative, as it is the most appropriate for social studies. Data collection was carried out through recorded interviews, transcribed and analyzed using the Content Analysis method. With the knowledge generated in this study, we created a booklet on “The organization and memories of the distribution of food kits to students at the Instituto Federal Farroupilha during the covid-19 pandemic”, with the intention of contributing to the construction of the memory of IFFar, making it possible to learn about the history of this institution and how school meals were offered during this time of adversity. This work is research developed within the scope of the Master's Program in Professional and Technological Education (ProfEPT), of the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology Farroupilha (IFFar), within the line of research Organization and Memories of Pedagogical Spaces in Professional and Technological Education (EPT).
