DUARTE-VIEIRA, Ana. Vulnerable population's access to healthcare: A view from Bioethics. Rev. Bioética y Derecho [online]. 2018, n.43, pp.211-223. ISSN 1886-5887.

This article discusses the issues related to access to healthcare of ethnic groups called quilombolas. Contemporary quilombos are traditional groups with political-economic-historical-cultural organization, which over time struggle for social inclusion through public policies and actions of comprehensive care. The Unified Health System (SUS) states that implementing the human right to health of the population is establishing equity standards in the health policy of the country. In this perspective, Bioethics becomes a social inclusion instrument guiding democratic discussions about the problems that reduce equitable access and better living, health and good living conditions of the population.

Palabras clave : bioethics; vulnerable populations; equity; health; public policy.
