SUMMARY:

The research aims to identify whether there are and how specific communication campaigns are offered, or not, to Venezuelan refugee populations, with a view to understanding the institutional behavior of official bodies responsible for health campaigns in relation to these refugees. We take into account the sociocultural aspects that permeate the context of migration and how the Secretaria de Saúde do Rio Grande do Norte, as well as the Ministério da Saúde (representing Brazil) have behaved in the perspective of meeting the demands that arise from of the presence of these populations in Brazilian territory, we also make observations about the Secretaria de Saúde do Estado de Roraima. Emphasis will be given to the pandemic caused by the new coronavirus. In addition to surveying these actions, we will carry out our investigation from the perspective of Critical Discourse Analysis, by Van Dijk (2018), which takes into account how the power relations present in media discourse are capable of perpetuating asymmetrical relationships. As it is a group with limited and minority access to basic services, compared to citizens born in the country, we also reflect on the very notion of citizenship (SANTOS, 2020) that the value of the citizen is linked to his place in the territory. Finally, we highlight the limitation found in these materials, both in numbers and access, in the portals of the two states mentioned above and the Ministério da Saúde, and the importance that International Agencies end up having when it comes to communicating with Venezuelan refugee populations. We noticed how communities are dependent on actions that come from these institutions that are partners with federal and state agencies, but which, however, end up developing most of the projects that deal directly with these people. However, despite this distance still existing, we notice the integration of new laws and the development of public policies - also involving a greater dialogue with the highlighted agencies - which project a more promising future than the revisited period. In order to contribute beyond this research, we offer a Guide for Communicators from Rio Grande do Norte, which can be used as a reflective basis for communication professionals who write, research or deal with the theme of the Venezuelan refuge in everyday life.
