Résumé
"This study analyzed inter-sectoral ac - tivities between the health and education sectors in implementing the Health in Schools program in a city within a metropolitan region in north - east Brazil. Analysis of the political-management process looked at the following dimensions: profes - sional practices and subject understanding of in - tersectorality. The results show that subjects define intersectorality as partnership and joint efforts. Regarding decision making and resource mobili - zation, during program implementation we no - ticed that healthcare leads, and education tends to play a more peripheral role. Health activities in the schools use a biomedical approach and pri - marily consist of lectures. We believe that the pro - gram strengthened the relationship between these two sectors. However, intersectoral coordination in the political-management process and practices show weaknesses and limitations."
