O desafio da difusão de políticas educacionais na federação brasileira : o caso do arranjo institucional do PAES e sua governança em construção

Abstract

The Constitution, in its article 211, points to collaboration between education systems as a strategy to face the immense educational challenges and to ensure equality of opportunity and quality of education for all children. The case in analyse is the Pacto pela Aprendizagem no Espírito Santo (Pact for Learning in Espírito Santo State), established by law in 2017, with the aim of strengthening learning and improving the educational indicators of students in the public educational system in Espírito Santo, through the establishment of collaboration between the state government and the municipalities education systems. The Espírito Santo Learning Pact was inspired by the Literacy at the Right Age Program -Paic, from Ceará, which, based on a collaborative regime, provided technical and financial cooperation to the municipalities of Ceará, with the intention to guarantee, for all children in Ceará, the learning of reading and writing until the age of 7. This study will seek to understand the challenges present in the process of interstate policy dissemination and will analyze the governance of the Paes' institutional arrangement, checking if the responsibilities, the competencies and the attributions, specific and shared, are formalized and functioning properly. In addition to bureaucratic structures, we intend to analyze how government entities, organized at different levels, articulate and interact to implement public policy and to measure the capacity of these structures to create an environment favorable to collaboration and dialogue. In methodological terms, the approach used was qualitative exploratory with bibliographic and documentary research. The data was processed based on Bardim (2011) and an analysis category was established: collaborative governance.
