This book is an inter-institutional and interdisciplinary study involving the State University of Feira de Santana (UEFS) through the Graduate Program in Collective Health (PPGSC) and the Interdisciplinary Center for Studies on Health Inequalities (NUDES) in partnership with the Bahia State Public Security Secretariat (SSP-BA), which presents the contributions of Disque Denúncia based on the characterization of criminal complaints in the Metropolitan Region of Salvador, Bahia, Brazil and a study on the association between intentional homicide, drug trafficking and social indicators in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil. In this sense, it is hoped to give visibility to the Disque Denúncia program as a tool in the criminal analysis process for managers, technicians and public security agents, as well as to show this service as a social tool for tackling issues linked to violence, crime and other related aspects.
