The observation of a significant number of Brazilians presented in poverty and misery, deprived of the opportunity to exercise the fundamental right to food, essential to life with dignity has, over the years, required by government agencies and civil society, the effectiveness of social programs of the emergency order to fight against poverty and hunger led to the poorest segments of the population. While important, these programs on the context in which they were created, failed to reverse the situation of poverty and, therefore, the disturbing problem of hunger in the country. In 2003, as part of government strategies to address poverty, the federal government implemented the Zero Hunger Program, a new perspective on hunger and poverty eradication, articulated a policy proposal on food security and nutrition. In this context and year, there is also the Mesa Brasil SESC Program (MBS), a food and nutritional program against hunger and food waste. This Mesa Brasil SESC Goiás program is the subject of this study, which was accomplished in Goiânia – headquarters of physical facilities of MBS, based on the research from 2004 to 2013. It was attempted to, as main objective, identify, from the concept of food and nutrition security that is based on the principles of sufficiency, quality and adequacy, the measures adopted by the MSB against hunger and against food waste, and are implemented in a transverse perspective, educational and cultural activities in the social field space / social space food. Linking theory and methodology, we have used sociocultural theory of Bourdieu promoting understanding, through his concepts of field and habitus of the food, the set of values, ideas, beliefs and symbols that shape practices and educational initiatives developed by MBS. In an interaction of the concept of social field food, Bourdieu was used again, the theory to understand the representation was from Poulain to understand the representation of the practices and hierarchical and reciprocal social relationships that are built around food. This concept of social space and social dimensions of food in this space (of edatable, the food system, the space eater, consumer habits and the temporality of food), allowed to identify all these articulated and configured in the social space of MBS dimensions. The study of the case as a method of empirical research has favored the simultaneous use of different techniques and research tools allowed to cross and compare information, confirm and analyze together with the individual, and the individual with together, showing multiple situations, social and cultural relations that are structured within the space of MBS. The results of this work indicate significant advances of Mesa Brazil Sesc Goiás Programme according to their objectives and also challenges. Challenges, most of the time, with structural solutions.
