Writing: lack of investment and inequality are possible paths
Candidates can discuss how the lack of resources, regional inequalities and difficulties in accessing health services compromise the value of the SUS.
Among the possible theses, the student can argue that "SUS democratizes access to health, although it is harmed by the devaluation of public services", explains Marcus Barcelos, Portuguese coordinator at Bernoulli Educação.
'Valuing the SUS is not just praising it', say teachers
One of the risks of this year's writing is to transform the text into a list of qualities of the SUS, without discussing the problems that hinder its strengthening.
"Valuing the SUS does not mean ignoring its challenges. On the contrary: a consistent discussion can recognize problems of financing, infrastructure, management or access and, precisely based on them, defend mechanisms to strengthen the system", says Nathan Sena, Writing professor at Elite Rede de Ensino.
According to teachers interviewed by g1, the theme of this year's essay follows the same pattern as other years, in the sense that it is not a subject guided by the media.
Furthermore, it is an issue with strong social roots, closely linked to the Brazilian reality. Check out the teachers’ analysis of the subject.
