Resumo: | The aim of this article is to analyse the responses of Latin American and Caribbean regional organisations to the pandemic caused by COVID-19 through a comparative analysis between the policies adopted by Mercosur, the Andean Community, and CARICOM. We have mapped the discussions, initiatives, and policies adopted by these regional organisations in order to understand the main elements that determined the adoption of regional co-ordination in the strategies to face the pandemic’s effects. We argue that those organisations which had specific institutional channels dedicated to dealing with health issues and had already faced other health crises have had less difficulty in coordinating their member states’ actions and adopting regional policies. Moreover, it can be affirmed that the level of economic interdependence and political convergence between member state governments played a significant role. Thus, this article seeks to contribute to a broader understanding of the current state of health co-operation in Latin American and Caribbean regional organisations, as well as to add to the discussion about its potential in coordinating and promoting regional health policies. |

Mapeamos as discussões, iniciativas e políticas adotadas por essas organizações regionais a fim de compreender os principais elementos que determinaram a adoção da coordenação regional nas estratégias para enfrentar os efeitos da pandemia. Argumentamos que aquelas organizações que tinham canais institucionais específicos dedicados a lidar com questões de saúde e já tinham enfrentado outras crises de saúde, tiveram menos dificuldade em coordenar as ações de seus estados membros e adotar políticas regionais. Além disso, pode ser afirmado que o nível de interdependência econômica e convergência política entre os governos dos estados membros desempenhou um papel significativo. Assim, este artigo procura contribuir para uma compreensão mais ampla do estado atual da cooperação em saúde nas organizações regionais da América Latina e do Caribe, bem como para acrescentar à discussão sobre seu potencial na coordenação e promoção de políticas regionais de saúde.São Paulo State University (UNESP)Federal University of São Paulo (UNIFESP)São Paulo State University (UNESP)Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio de Janeiro, Instituto de Relações InternacionaisUniversidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP)Federal University of São Paulo (UNIFESP)Mariano, Karina [UNESP]Bressan, RegianeFerreira, Guilherme2023-07-29T11:14:51Z2023-07-29T11:14:51Z2022-11-04info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/article-application/pdfhttp://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0102-8529.20224402e20220049Contexto Internacional.
