MANO, Maria Amélia Medeiros; RAMOS, Nara Vieira  e  TREVISAN, Amarildo Luiz. The moment of tragedy: the role of education and health in the perspective of social justice. Avaliação [online]. 2019, vol.24, n.2, pp.545-565. ISSN 1982-5765.  https://doi.org/10.1590/s1414-40772019000200013.

The article addresses a theme that has not yet been debated in the field of Education and Health, despite all advances in information and communication technologies (ICTs), which bring us into contact with tragic and catastrophic events that occur in the world all the time. The text starts from the analysis of the "moment of the tragedy", questioning the before and after, as well as some concepts in contrast that are expensive to this discussion, as is the case of natural and human. In sequence, a description and analysis of a lived experience is made, which serves to stress some concepts in the area of Education and Health. The objective is to rethink public education policies and social rights for the formation of a culture against disasters and for a perception of events as social and human constructions. More specifically, it supports the idea that the reduction of fundamental risk factors should be associated with the reduction of inequalities, which is the core of social justice issues.
