Based on a framework necessary to obtain speed in tenders for public security forces, the present assignment aimed to verify the weapons purchasing procedures carried out from 2005 to 2022, in the electronic auction modality, carried out by the MJSP. Government purchases, the shared purchasing system, the principle of efficiency in bidding and its relationship with management, public security regarding the implementation of this policy, as well as the efficiency measure of this public service, were the scope of this study. With a post-positivist philosophical perspective, using a mixed method and concomitant triangulation technique, descriptive observations of the collected procedures were constructed. As a result, it was observed the existence of several factors that can influence the efficiency of the process, highlighting the pressing need for great care in preparing the specifications of the goods. The efficiency of weapons purchases still suffers from specification problems that result in delays or, in some cases, the cancellation of auctions. The recent solution adopted did not prove to be sufficient to overcome this problem, making it necessary for the administration to adopt new practices on the subject. 

Studies on the effectiveness of Internal Auditing have become increasingly relevant, as
the remarkable expansion of auditing activity has imposed new challenges. In order to
meet the expectations of stakeholders, audits must be increasingly well prepared,
effectively fulfilling their mission of increasing and protecting organizational value. With
this in mind the general objective of this study was to identify which of the aspects
related to organizational factors influence the effectiveness of internal audits and which
are perceived as most relevant. To this end, exploratory and descriptive research was
used, with a quantitative approach. The study was based on the model proposed by
Lenz (2013), and the perception of the heads of audits was collected from internal
audits linked to federal universities and institutions within the federal education system.
Based on the answers obtained from the questionnaire, data was analyzed relating to
four factors that influence the performance of Internal Auditing - Organizational
Characteristics; Internal Auditing Resources; IA Processes; and IA Relationships -
which were associated with 34 aspects. The data was analyzed using the statistical
techniques of factor analysis and cluster analysis. The results showed that issues
associated with IA relationships, IA independence, IA processes, such as monitoring
recommendations and using techniques to optimize the audit process, the continuous
development of the IA team and the mandate of the head of audit were perceived as
completely relevant to the effectiveness of internal audit. These results are in line with
the literature and have the potential to contribute to the qualification of Internal Audits,
consequently increasing their effectiveness.

Society requires the Brazilian federal public administration to provide services efficiently, that is, to reduce costs and increase the quality of services provided. The evaluation systematized by the logical model can generate important contributions to the improvement of the quality of the services provided by the federal public servants who joined the Management by Results Program in telework regime. In particular, the Program for Management by Results of the National Fund for the Development of Education (PGR-FNDE) which aims to promote the productivity and quality of deliveries by FNDE servers. The diversity of approaches, methods and specific indicators makes it important and necessary to carry out studies and research that understand and guide the adequate evaluation of the activities provided. Thus, the construction of the Program's logical model is a basic element of the evaluation stage, since understanding its structure is essential for the elaboration of evaluation indicators. This case study will be carried out through a qualitative approach, of an exploratory and descriptive nature, with bibliographic research, documentary research and semi-structured interviews, which will be studied through content analysis, with subject matter experts from the Ministry of Economy and the FNDE . After the pre-assembly of the Logical Model, the validation stage will be carried out by the specialists, in which the gaps identified in the program will be discussed and the existing doubts will be resolved. Thus, the research results subsidized the construction of the Logical Model, which will systematize the program, assist in the planning of actions and subsidize the allocation of budgetary, financial, human and technological resources. Thus, it is concluded that the application and validation of the Logical Model of the Program will favor the analysis of the physical, human and operational conditions, being essential for the improvement of the quality of the Federal Program of Management of Results, mainly for the PGR-FNDE, being thus able to be used for monitoring and evaluation.

This article examines the outcomes and reflections of Brazil's Anti-Corruption Law (Law No. 12.846/2013) over the first decade of its implementation, with a specific focus on the leniency

agreements signed by the Office of the Comptroller General (CGU). The research analyzes patterns, trends and indicators in the leniency agreements made between 2014 and 2023, considering variables such as the legal nature of the companies, their economic sector of operation, financial impact, registration status, applied sanctions, and negotiation duration. With the distribution and effects of the agreements assessed, the research highlights the central role of the CGU in Brazilian anti-corruption policy, revealing the continuous adaptation of negotiation strategies and the pursuit of proportional application of sanctions. The results indicate that high-risk sectors such as Engineering and Construction, Energy, and Finance are the focus of administrative leniency, directing efforts to areas with the greatest financial impact of corruption. It also reveals the importance attributed to integrity programs as a measure to prevent and correct non-compliant acts in business management. Finally, the article emphasizes the need for continuous and data-based evaluation to enhance anti-corruption policy in Brazil.

Public transit strikes are events often happens stopping the provision of that service
and causing inconvenience. This master’s thesis aims to analyze the context of public
transit in Distrito Federal (DF), Brazil to propose improvements in the planning process
by: systematic literature review; data collection on strike cases in DF; estimation of
impact of strikes on passenger’s demand in DF’s public transit; and formulation of
guidelines to elaborate contingency plan for public transit strikes. The results show: (i)
Methodi Ordinatio systematic literature review methodology highlighted several
aspects of scientific papers on negative impacts of strikes; (ii) the data collection on
strikes denotes that they often happens in DF but the number is dropping; (iii) there
are negative impacts on passenger’s demand for public transit in DF estimate in panel
data model; (iv) a set of contingency actions is needed to mitigate that negative effects.
The formulation of a contingency plan to mitigate public transit strikes is essential and
must be based on structured actions that allows improvement in management and
public transit service.

The National School Meals Program (PNAE) aims to contribute to school performance and
the formation of healthy eating habits among students, by offering food in schools. In 2020,
when face-to-face classes were suspended due to the Covid-19 pandemic and the PNAE
legislation was changed to alowthe delivery ofschool meals directly to parents or guardians
of students,which came to imposeseveral challenges on the Program,demandinga more

The digital transformation of labor relations, intensified with the advent of the COVID-19
pandemic, has driven new forms and configurations of work, among which acquires relevance,
telework, in which virtual teams are connected by means of information and communication
technologies. New challenges have emerged for the leadership of virtual teams, especially
regarding the aspects of Quality of Life in Telework (e-QVT). In Brazil, the government has
edited norms that enable the implementation of a management program aiming to improve the
productivity and the quality of life of teleworkers and to reduce costs. In this context, the
objective of this work is to draw a diagnosis of the dimensions of e-QVT, identifying points of
attention and facilitators to the management and implementation of remote work in the Fundo
Nacional de Desenvolvimento da Educação - FNDE, and compare the results of research in five
public agencies where the e-QVT Scale was applied. The research is characterized by a
descriptive approach of exploratory nature conducted through a systematic literature review
(SLR) based on the protocol of Cronin, Ryan and Coughlan (2008), in the databases: Web of
Science and Scopus, in the Portal of Periodicals CAPES. After using the inclusion and exclusion
criteria, 43 articles related to the themes of Virtual Team Management and e-QVT were selected,
whose results provide subsidies for new research that contribute to the institutionalization of the
theme in academia and in Brazilian organizations. The research has quali-quantitative
characteristics (mixed approach) and was conducted with 158 teleworkers from FNDE, with the
application of the e-QVT Measurement Scale, developed by Andrade, composed of five
dimensions of Telework: Self-Management, Context, Technological Structure, Infrastructure and
Work Overload, and by the dimension of Telework Management. The findings indicate that the
FNDE teleworkers are in a dominant well-being zone, with positive results for health promotion,
in five dimensions of e-QVT. The dimension Work overload is in the moderate dominant malaise
zone and is a crucial factor to has been considered by telework management, according to
Ferreira's Psychometric Cartography (2012). Equivalent results have been observed in the
research conducted by Andrade (2020) in the Superior Court of Justice, the National Health
Surveillance Agency and the Court of Justice of the Federal District and Territories, and by
Fayad (2021), at the University of Brasilia.

One of the most important instruments for a country's foreign policy is the international act, and, through the number of documents signed, their use and the importance given to their effects in domestic territory, it is possible to measure their diplomatic performance and the expanding the reach of its influence and global reliability. In Brazil, after the signature of a bilateral or multilateral act, a procedure to internalize the rules internationally agreed to the Brazilian legal system must be used, through the various analytical procedures in the Executive and Legislative Powers. Thus, having chosen the procedural phase that occurs in the Executive Branch, in the elaboration and in the processing of the Interministerial Explanatory Statement - EMI, will be straiten the perspective under the Ministry of Justice and Public Security - MJSP, being necessary a study of the procedural workflow of processing of the internalization of the international acts in the areas of the Ministry, for the purpose of verifying an integrated vision of the activities performed by these units, in the light of the concepts of Business Process Management (BPM). It is also noted that on August 31, 2020, Ordinance No. 453 was published, which provides the preparation and processing of acts within the scope of the MJSP, to formalize workflows in order to promote legal certainty for the signature and implementation of these legal devices within the competence of the Ministry. Considering the scenario of internalization of the international acts described above, starting from the procedural management to generate a product that can meet the expectations of the interested parties, this study will seek to answer the following question: how does the process of internalization of an international act take place, regarding the analysis phase of the Interministerial Explanatory Statement - EMI in the context of the MJSP, as of Ordinance No. 453, of August 31, 2020? This research project, therefore, aims to characterize and suggest a model of integrated institutional management of procedures of mapping the workflows adopted between the sectoral units involved, in relation to the initial phase of incorporation of an international act.

The complexity of the relationship between the Law on Access to Information (LAI) and the General Data Protection Law (LGPD) results in difficult terrain for the Federal Public Service to operate, since while the LAI advocates public transparency, the LGPD seeks to protect the personal data of Brazilian citizens. Considering this problem, this study aimed to analyze the apparent conflict related to access to information in the federal public sector in the light of LAI, LGPD and applied Good Practices. Methodologically, a descriptive-exploratory research is assumed to examine the theme in its most recent reliefs, in this case the interpretative conflict when applying the referred laws. For data collection, a non-systematic bibliographic review was adopted, consulting relevant national databases, namely: Portal Periódicos CAPES associated with the platform of  the University of Brasília (UnB); Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO); and Google Scholar. For the analysis and interpretation of the bibliographic evidence, we start from an interdisciplinary theoretical perspective, embracing the Theory of the New Public Service (NSP); the Dialogue of Sources Theory; and the Theory of Weighting of Rights. A qualitative research was also adopted, using documentary and bibliographical research techniques, as well as conducting semi-structured interviews with members of four institutions with different levels of maturity in the implementation of the two legal statutes. After the analyses, it was verified that good practices in the implementation and execution of the LAI and the LGPD mean fundamentally observing the precepts of the three theories mentioned, especially with regard to serving the public interest, in order to ensure the protection of the personality of the individuals by weighing their rights. To this end, during the course of the research, some lessons were learned, such as the importance of mapping all business processes and the personal data they store before they are made available, and it is also recommended as good practices: ensuring transparency and protection of sensitive personal data and promote the service to the citizen-user in an efficient and integrated way. In addition, it was possible to verify that the LAI and the LGPD are two sides of the same coin, which is the transparency of data between different and diverse social actors. This study demonstrated this by analyzing different groups of public institutions and their managers in the application of both laws. Therefore, the implementation of the LAI comes to promote access to information, and the LGPD assists in this operation. Therefore, it is essential that public managers act in accordance with transparency and data protection laws, and that good practices in their implementation are widely disseminated and applied, in order to guarantee a balance between public transparency and the protection of human rights. of individuals. 

Human trafficking is a modern form of slavery. It is a complex phenomenon that still exists on a global scale, notably structured in the movements of people in a context of vulnerability with the purpose of exploitation. Data from the Global Report on Trafficking in Persons, produced by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC, 2020) indicate that, only in 2018, almost 50,000 victims of human trafficking were detected in 135 countries, including Brazil. Thus, the aim of this research is to study the implementation of the Brazilian government's National Policy to Combat Trafficking in Humans (PNETP) as a response to human trafficking in Brazil, from the perspective of caring for victims. The theoretical foundation included an analysis of the theme's antecedents in international documents, in particular the Palermo Protocol, and a description of the PNETP in Brazil, in addition to the assistance and protection measures offered to victims. The methodology used consisted of documentary and bibliographical research, with data collection and analysis techniques suitable for the study. The results achieved revealed the existence of correlations between Brazilian legislation and the Palermo Protocol, indicating a significant alignment between both instruments. In relation to caring for victims, the analysis showed that the same categories and approaches are present in the legal documents, demonstrating Brazil's effort to adopt measures and guidelines that are in accordance with international standards for combating human trafficking. This compliance is essential to support national action regarding the crime of human trafficking, in addition to ensuring adequate protection for victims of this crime. By identifying the presence of categories related to the protection of victims of human trafficking in legal documents, in PNETP, in Law 13.344/2016, and in National Plans, we can say that Brazil is seeking to follow the international guidelines established by the Palermo Protocol. In general, the Brazilian plans presented a higher percentage of content of goals for victims caring, however, this alignment is not uniformly reflected in the three plans approved. This is due to the fact that there are more goals in Plan II compared to Plan I, but there was a decrease in the percentage of goals for victims caring from Plan III to Plan II. Therefore, much is still needed to ensure that victims of trafficking in Brazil have full rights.

After identifying a growing trend in the accumulation of unprocessed unpaid obligations in the
years 2008 to 2014, Decrees No. 8,407/2015 and 9,428/2018 were issued, amending Decree No.
93,872 of December 23, 1986, and introduced a stricter approach to managing commitments
recorded as unpaid obligations, which included the implementation of automatic blocking and
cancellations, along with a reduction in the validity period of commitments recorded as
unprocessed unpaid obligations, from 5 years to 3 years. This work aims to determine whether the
current normative provisions that deal with the blocking and cancellation of public expenses
recorded as unprocessed unpaid obligations might restrict the implementation of public policies
under the responsibility of the Ministry of Justice and Public Security. During the research, the
rollup of unpaid obligations from 2008 to 2022 was analyze and tests comparing the average values
were conducted using the previous and subsequent periods of the applicability of the automatic
cancellations of unpaid obligations imposed by Decrees No 8,407/2015 and 9,428/2018, which
indicated an impact on the execution of expenses categorized as investments and on resource
transfers to subnational entities, especially in the government activities related to public security.
Proceeding with semi-structured, in-person interviews with managers working within the studied
federal entity aiming to gather perception into the consequences and effects of Decree No
93,872/1986, highlighting that the three-year validity period for commitments recorded as
unprocessed unpaid obligations remains sufficient for executing low-complexity expenses, yet
inadequate for covering voluntary transfers, project execution, and complex investments. The main
implication regarding the cancellation of unprocessed unpaid obligations was the commitment of
the current year's budget to support those expenses which had already received budgetary support
but were subsequently canceled automatically.

In the 1980s, the role of the State began to be rethought. Management concepts and techniques were introduced from the private sector to the public sector, based on efficiency, competitiveness and reduction of the administrative machinery (Peci; Pieranti; Rodrigues, 2008). These paradigm shifts allowed the evolution of Public Administration to the current model. In this sense, public administration has been undergoing a deep reflection on the quality of services provided and the results delivered to society, as well as on the public means and resources applied to achieve this purpose. In times when information technology solidifies itself as an essential means of meeting citizens' needs, through the implementation of digital public services, digital transformation becomes imperative to the modern state. With this dynamic, it must be considered that public policies are increasingly associated with the use of technological resources – which can serve as a means, instrument and/or environment for the exercise of citizenship (Mozini et al., 2023). Technological advances have played a relevant role in expanding the relationship between government and citizens, notably in the development of public policies imbued with greater effectiveness and transparency. Electronic government plays a role that proves to be a facilitator and driver by stimulating accessibility, transparency and efficiency of administrative mechanisms. In this scenario, the Brazilian government, through the current Digital Government Secretariat of the Ministry of Management and Innovation of Public Services (SGD/ME), has been investing in the discussion, promotion and approval of various standards to intensify the use of the benefits brought by technologies. Such digital transformations have consequences for the economy and the government itself (Varella; Oliveira; Moesch, 2017). As a result of this work, we seek to reach the largest number of individuals who seek public services in a more agile, efficient, digital and cheap way. Digital transformation presents itself as a strategy for articulating technologies to solve the challenges to be faced, especially in increasing productivity, organizational efficiency, communication, differentiating itself as an innovative movement transforming the organization itself. However, we still do not know to what extent technology is disruptive to society and to what extent it serves as support, as it can also increase digital exclusion. To alleviate this issue, governments around the world are investing in digital accessibility for the poorest communities and those outside large centers. Through the case study of Portal Consumidor.gov.br, this study sought to examine the challenges of digital transformation in the Brazilian government and how it increases accessibility to e-government services and the formulation of public policies. For the research, the methodological strategy according to Lawrence Bardin was used. The author proposes a content analysis that focuses on interpreting the meaning of messages, seeking to understand the contexts and subtexts underlying the analyzed material. To this end, with the help of the Atlas.ti software, the categorization and coding of textual data was used, allowing the identification of emerging patterns and trends in the speeches or texts studied, which allowed for a more comprehensive and in-depth analysis. As a result of the research, this study brought recommendations for improvements to the Consumidor.gov.br portal in order to improve user experience, strengthen data security and improve platform management. In addition to these results, the importance of digital transformation in modernizing public services offered to citizens was demonstrated.

Over the past few years, there have been targeted initiatives to enhance Public Administration adopted by the government, with the aim of optimizing the quality of resources and services provided to the functioning of the Administration itself and to society. In this context, through foundational public policies, Public Administration has been striving to align its activities, with the technical standardization of products, processes, and services utilized in public safety being one of the critical aspects for enhancing citizen services. Consequently, once implemented, public policies need to be evaluated in terms of their effective impact on society.This research aimed to assess the influence of the conformity assessment process established in Senasp Technical Standards by MJSP on the enhancement of quality, safety, and performance of products intended for public safety. In this regard, through a methodological study involving two research samples from the Brazilian public safety population, we were able to analyze how the conformity assessment process, as part of the technical standardization and market normalization cycle, significantly influences the improvement of these equipment. To achieve this, the perception of experts was analyzed and subsequently compared with the evaluation conducted by the general public regarding public safety for the same variables studied. This analysis allowed us, in due course, to explore the correlation between the perceived importance of the studied conformity assessment process and the enhancement of quality, safety, and performance of pistols acquired in the tender held by MJSP in 2020 for public safety institutions. Based on these analyses, this work demonstrates that the conformity assessment process is perceived with a high degree of importance and is significantly correlated with the improvement of quality, safety, and performance of products used in public safety. This influence is essential, essentially impacting the procurement of Beretta APX pistols by the Public Administration. The research also suggests that this acquired product meets users' expectations regarding quality, safety, and performance requirements but has some technical parameters that can be improved. This serves as a checkpoint for professionals, public safety institutions, and the industry related to this market niche.

Several studies point to education as the most promising investment, positively reflecting both the economic and non-economic aspects of a society; however, the current economic scenario and its tax structure do not allow a significant increase in spending in this sector, leaving efficiency as the resource to be developed. The present dissertation seeks to analyze the quality of public spending on education in the municipal public network in elementary school, in all cities of Alagoas, a state with the lowest HDI (Human Development Index) in Brazil, using data envelopment analysis - DEA For this, traditional data that indicate school infrastructure, capital, work and wealth of the municipality were used as input/input: the number of teachers in the second phase of elementary school (5th to 9th grades); the average daily class hours at this stage of elementary school, multiplied by the number of students enrolled in this period; number of public elementary schools with access to the electricity network and/or that have a sewage system; Municipal Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita. As an output, the Portuguese and mathematics grades in the 9th grade were considered, in the Saeb 2019 test, multiplied by the students enrolled in this school year; as well as the inverse of per capita expenditure on primary education. It is concluded that, when relating the cities considered efficient with the population criterion, it is observed that most of the so-called benchmarking are represented by the municipalities that have the smallest number of inhabitants, corroborating the thesis that the population increase of the municipalities means in the increase in demand in education and greater challenges in this sector.

This study aims to analyze the design and execution of the MDR Digital Transformation
Plan from the perspective of the innovation process, bringing at the end proposals for
improvements that can be implemented in new plans, in the MDR itself or in other government
agencies. The theoretical framework presents the concepts of e-government (TANG; PERUMAL,
2013), digital transformation (FILGUEIRAS; FLÁVIO; PALOTTI, 2019) and innovation process
(TIDD; BESSANT, 2015). As a methodology, qualitative research was adopted, of an
exploratory and descriptive nature, based on the case study of the MDR, using the techniques of
documental research, semi-structured interviews and bibliographic research. The analyzes
showed that the processes of conception and execution of the MDR PTD were based on the
principles of agile development and had the collaboration of other agencies of the federal
government and the support of the senior administration of the MDR, which contributed to the
good performance of the project. In the characterization of the MDR PTD from the perspective of
the innovation process, four facilitating factors and five hindering factors of the process were
identified. From the understanding of the innovation dynamics that took place, suggestions for
improvements that can be implemented in similar processes in public administration were pointed
out. In this study, it was found that the MDR PTD innovated in the way it showed the
organization the purpose of top management, to carry out the digitization of its public services, in
addition to making deliveries to society, which has the power to provide greater efficiency and
agility in the provision of public services.

The processing time of federal environmental licensing processes involves multiple factors, which can be co-responsible for any delays in the emission of Preliminary Licenses (LPs). This study aimed to systematize the average time taken by the actors involved in the process of environmental licensing of road structures during the prelicensing phase. A sample of eight licensing processes of road structures, granted LP from 2009 to 2018, under the requirement of Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA), was selected. Every process was submitted to the documental analysis method. The results of the arrangement showed that most of the phases under analysis are not completed in the minimum time defined by the normative instruments, therefore, there is little effectiveness in the processing time. The environmental agency showed time effectiveness in the screening stages and in the public hearing summoning only; the four further stages under its exclusive competence were not effective. As for the entrepeneur, the delivery of the record and transcript of public hearings were transactively effective, whereas the remaining actions were not performed within the stipulated time. The statement of the intervening agencies and state environmental agencies (OEMAs) about the draft of the Term of Reference (TR) did not reach transactive effectiveness. The manifestation of the intervening agencies, state environmental agencies (OEMAs) and municipal environmental agencies (OMMAs) over the technical analysis of the EIA/RIMA also did not present transative effectiveness. However, the manifestation of interested people in the public hearings occurred within the deadline set, showing it to be effective. The study concludes that the transactional effectiveness depends on the processing effectiveness dimension. Given the experience obtained with the arrangement put into this project, it is recommended for future researchers in this topic to pay close attention to two characteristics of transactional effectiveness in order to better reflect the practice of those involved. First, the qualitative dimension: in this case, the average performance of the actors will reflect into the aimed sample set of processes, so, exceptional cases will heighten the average time. The latter is the quantitative dimension: the number of cases that fit within the parameters of effectiveness can also reflect the practical performance of those involved, reducing the influence of isolated cases. Therefore, these are two indispensable and non-exclusive measures.

Public procurement is essential for the functioning of the State, enabling the Administration to use private individuals to perform maintenance activities related to self-interest, as well as to directly meet society's demands. In this administrative function, the State places itself as one of the main consumers of the market, having a fundamental role for sustainable economic development. And because of this importance, the state's submission to the principle of efficiency is necessary for the caution of the public interest, which requires swift, economic and covert procedures within legality. This dissertation, using the Multipaper format, composed of two articles, aims to verify the factors that influence the efficiency of the internal phase of public purchases made through bids, especially in the Pregão modality, because it is the most used. The first study, through a systematic review of the literature, following the Cronin, Ryan and Coughlan protocol (2008), sought to raise the published works in the last five years on the efficiency of public procurement, using the descriptors 'purchases','bids', 'efficiency' and 'efficient', resulting in 29 selected articles, published, in general, in journals of good qualification, it is possible to understand that efficiency has been researched mainly regarding speed and Economy. The second study, already using quantitative methods, investigated the variables that influence the efficiency of the internal phase of bids made within the Executive Secretariat of the Ministry of Justice and Public Security. First, through a linear regression, the total time of the internal phase, placed as a dependent variable, presented a positive relationship with the variable that represented the time of elaboration of the Reference Term and negative with theduration of the Preliminary Technical Study. Sequentially, applying a logistic regression, the time of preparation of the Reference Term was more likely to generate unawarded items and the time of preparation of the price survey a lower probability, revealing the opportunity for the Administration to promote the reduction of the timededicated to the Reference Term and increase the focus on the preparation of the Preliminary Technical Study and price research, training efforts of the actors
responsible for these procedural artifacts.

Develop public policies in the Brazilian context where there is a diversity of actors since the Brazilian state is composed of a federation composed of the Union, States, Federal District and Municipalities, associating with society and its social organizations established by law such as CACS-FUNDEB, is challenging. Understanding the dynamics of the Union's relationship with the social council is a step towards improving public policy. This study sought to understand the FNDE and CACS-FUNDEB DF relationship within PAR public policy from the perspective of Public Governance. Despite some conceptual differences regarding the theme addressed in this study, which are public governance, social council and public policies, with regard to the second and third, there are no significant differences in the theoretical framework. Politics is understood as activities carried out by public authorities due to their functions. Social control, in the context used, it involves the ability to interfere in public management. Governance, on the other hand, because it has a variety of meanings and approaches depending on the theme, so there is a need for greater differentiation, including with regard to public governance, which closes the scope, but still with a variety of understandings. It is necessary in this way to conceptualize covering the importance of councils in politics, in this way a concept that focuses on the participation and exercise of citizenship is something that was sought. The study addresses these three dimensions from the analysis of the relationship between FNDE and CACS FUNDEB DF, seeking to give concreteness to the exercise of citizenship. In this way, a qualitative research was carried out through interviews in five, being four in the FNDE and one with the council of the DF and more documental analysis with the actors involved in the policy and responsible for this relationship. It was concluded that the DF council is not participatory within the policy and additionally the policy itself has weaknesses to be remedied such as fundamental transparency for the exercise of citizenship, mechanisms of interaction with the FNDE and additionally the exercise of collaboration as fundamental to encourage the council to participate in the implementation of public policy.

This study analyzed the influences of mandatory teleworking on the mental health of technical-
administrative servers at the University of Brasília during the pandemic. The theoretical-
methodological approach of the psychosociology of work was adopted, privileging their
experiences and narratives as a case study with a qualitative approach, of a descriptive and
exploratory nature, through Bardin 's content analysis . The results showed the
sociodemographic profile of the 15 research participants, composed mostly of female, married,
white, living with their family close to work, with an average age of 37.8 years, 8 years of work
at the University and all of them with schooling. higher. During the interview most were
working in a hybrid relay model and representing each decan with the prevalence of the
Community Affairs Deanship. These participants understand mental health from the positive
perception of the well-being construct in its multidimensions related to the state of balance and
social support and complementary to the concept of non-mental health based on the projected
imbalance (or not) on the states and symptoms of mental health. stress, anxiety, depression,
dysfunction and lack of autonomy. Thus, based on the concept of mental health marked by non-
health with the family and work as determinants of their trajectories, as well as the pandemic as
a social phenomenon intrinsic to teleworking , the majority of participants (50%) shared
negative influences. followed by ambiguous, negative and positive influences (28%) and,
finally, positive influences (14%). Telework had a negative influence on most of the participants
' experiences, given the lack of organizational management planning in view of the untimeliness
of telework , the overload in the overlapping of roles between work and home and the lack of
social interaction due to isolation and feeling of isolation. loneliness resulting in anxiety,
depression, loneliness, anguish and causing, in some cases, serious illness. Then, the narratives
demonstrate that some participants perceived an ambiguous influence on mental health, both
negative and positive, or experienced negative experiences for some and positive ones for
others, resulting from teleworking in the pandemic in the face of the organizational adaptation
process, the use of information technologies and communication and the possibility of escaping
from family and work conflicts, promoting anxiety, stress and even illness and/or courage and
tranquility, less anxiety and stress. And, finally, the positive influence of teleworking during the
pandemic on mental health with regard to the working conditions and flexibility experienced by
the minority of the participants' experiences in the face of the perception of well-being, rest,
concentration, less stress, satisfaction , motivation, discipline, freedom, autonomy and
empowerment . In view of the influences of teleworking on mental health, the narratives
covered the resources, strategies and mechanisms that the research participants resorted to for
the comprehensive care of their mental health during the pandemic, such as mental health care,
leisure activities and learning, physical and health activities, alcohol use, change of perspective
and technological distancing. Participants indicated suggestions for self-care in mental health,
such as health activities, mental health care, collective actions and hybrid work. And the
