Open-access From rhetoric to practice: a critical analysis of the National Policy for the Promotion of Physical Activity for Older Adults (Bill no. 4,974/2023)

Brazil’s aging population requires integrated public policies that promote sustainable social progress. Bill No. 4,974/2023 proposes the National Policy for the Promotion of Physical Activity for Older Adults. This study critically analyzes the bill regarding policy, management, and funding, using document and content analysis based on historical-dialectical materialism. Although it recognizes the importance of physical activity, the bill lacks budget provisions, integration with existing policies, and clear mechanisms for equity and monitoring, compromising its effectiveness.
