Brasília – The federal government has launched a new digital platform called Brasil Participativo, designed to centralize all official tools for public engagement, including consultations, contribution forms and participatory processes related to health policy. The initiative was presented by the National Committee for Health Technology Incorporation (Conitec) and aims to expand transparency and facilitate dialogue between the government, patients, professionals and civil society.

Through Brasil Participativo, users can submit comments, attach supporting documents and track public consultations in progress. The platform is integrated with the national gov.br authentication system, allowing secure participation using individual taxpayer identification (CPF) credentials. According to Conitec, all new public consultations and calls for input on health technology assessments will now be hosted through this unified system.

Officials highlighted that the new tool represents a milestone in participatory governance, offering a more accessible, transparent and data-driven process for incorporating technologies into Brazil’s Unified Health System (SUS). The platform reinforces the government’s strategy to modernize digital participation and ensure that decisions on public health policies increasingly reflect social and scientific contributions.
