Carmen Fontes de Souza Teixeira was born in Bahia, and is now associate professor at the Collective Health Institute of the Federal University of Bahia (UFBA). An active participant in the sanitation reform movement of the mid-'70s, she has vast experience in the area of Collective Health, with an emphasis on Public Health, and acts in various fronts such as systems management, public policies, organization of services, and administrative planning and development. Through the Health Surveillance Professional Education Laboratory (Lavsa), the Joaquim Venâncio Polytechnical Health School, of the Oswaldo Cruz Foundation, invited her to give the lecture "the subjects of Health Surveillance constructing a curricular proposal for technical training and education", at the Joaquim Alberto Cardoso de Melo auditorium, on July 9, 2007. On that same day, Carmen Teixeira granted the interview that follows. In it, she relives the discussion about the change in the health care model and examines themes such as health surveillance as a counter-hegemonic proposal based on the revision of curriculums, subjectivity in the training of health professionals, intersectoriality, empowerment of surveillance agents, and much more, always from the perspective of Sanitation Reform and the improvement of professionals of that sector.
