Sumario:BACKGROUND: From monographic studies on the details of the routine of each adventure activity that gained visibility in the 1970s and 1980s, through the terminological debate on the adoption of an expression that brought them together in the 1990s, more recently, comparative studies between sports have been observed focusing on different social markers of difference and inequality in access and practice conditions and their different political dimensions. In the meantime, the Adventure Sports Commission of the now defunct Ministry of Sports of Brazil was created, although it has not been able to maintain the activities for over a year.OBJECTIVE: This article aims to analyze the constitution and suppression of the actions of the Adventure Sports Commission of the Brazilian Ministry of Sport.METHODS: Document analysis of sources on the elaboration of Brazilian public policies for adventure practices found in the Official Gazette and official websites of the National Council of Physical Education and the Brazilian College of Sport Sciences and in-depth interviews with field agents. RESULTS: Due to disagreement with the tourism authorities on the regulation of adventure sports, the Ministry of Sport created, in 2006, the Adventure Sports Commission (CEAV), at the request of representatives of sports associations. CEAV aimed to develop a standardization of the concepts and techniques used by confederations, federations and associations already existing in Brazil. The intention was to disseminate these concepts in events that sought to standardize safety and sustainability standards. However, the commission closed its activities unofficially and its objectives were not achieved.CONCLUSION: A number of reasons disrupted CEAVV, among them the reorganization of the Ministry’s organization chart and the departure of the main agents to support the initiative, as well as the internal difficulty of consensus among very diverse agents.
