This article discusses the program “Continuing Health Education in Movement” (EPS em Movimento) implemented by the Ministry of Health’s Department of Health Education Management (DEGES, acronym in Portuguese) in partnership with academic institutions and the workers and administrators of the Brazilian National Health System (SUS). Its main aim is to give visibility to EPS experience resulting from the affects and encounters. The authors aim to map and understand this experience, its innovative nature, and connection with the ways in which health policies for SUS are being formulated and implemented, including the Continuing Education in Health Policy established in Brazil since 2003.
Keywords : Health policy; Continuing education; Encounter.
