The impact of climate changes on families, especially the most vulnerable, has led the government of Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT) to open the discussion on how to reformulate protection and assistance mechanisms to provide a more adequate response in extreme situations. .
The debate is not only current, but is considered urgent by the Executive. In a short period of time, nearby regions within Brazil experienced completely different nature phenomena and impacts, such as floods and severe droughts.
In an interview granted to Sheetthe national secretary of Social Assistance, André Quintão, affirms that the current legislation to face disasters is insufficient to deal with this new reality.
In addition to the lack of adequate instruments to provide support to families who suffer losses, human or material, it is considered necessary to review the logic of the Government’s actions, moving from a reactive stance to a more preventive action, with the detection of risks.
