Its objective is to evaluate the University Extension Curricularization Policy, based on the tensions arising in its implementation at the Universidade Federal do Ceará (UFC). The research is based on the understanding that the curricularization of extension, as an educational public policy, emerges in a context of political, economic, and social transformations that directly impact higher education institutions, especially with regard to integrating extension into academic practices. The relevance of this study lies in its critical analysis of the theoretical-epistemological aspects involved in the curricularization of extension, seeking to identify the challenges and potentialities of its implementation. Methodologically, it adopts a qualitative approach, using document analysis and interviews with UFC managers and extension practitioners. Data analysis was conducted through Critical Discourse Analysis (Orlandi, 2012; Fairclough; Melo, 2012), in order to interpret the meanings and significations attributed to university extension within the curricularization policy. The theoretical framework is grounded in discussions on educational public policies focused on higher education, drawing on a review of the development and models of the university in Brazil (Ribeiro, 1986; Höfling, 2001; Chauí, 2002, 2003; Fávero, 2006; Cunha, 2007a, 2007b; Silva, 2013; Paro, 2020; Saviani, 2021). Regarding extension policies and epistemologies, the discussion is informed by Freire (2014), Rocha (1984a, 1984b), Sousa (2010), Oliveira e Goulart (2015), Gadotti (2017), Machado (2019, 2021) e Jimenez et. al. (2023). Concerning the category of curriculum – central to this debate – this study draws on Giroux (1986), Apple (2006), Silva (2009), Sacristán (2013), Arroyo (2014), Hooks (2017), Gaviria (2019), and Imperatore (2019). The results indicate that both the documents and the research collaborators’ accounts reveal particularities of the dispute between models of the university as an emancipatory institution, situated within the context of demands imposed by a managerial state. Despite the challenges, collaborators express a strong sense of belonging to the university and orient their statements toward recognition of, and investment in universtity extension, understood as an expression of the ethos of a transformative public university.

Therefore, it becomes essential to understand how care and assistance are provided during this cycle, especially in spaces that aim to offer comprehensive care. In light of this, this research evaluated the humanization practices in maternal-fetal health care at a Pregnant Woman, Baby, and Postpartum Woman's House (CGBP) located in Fortaleza-CE, from the perspective of the individuals directly involved in the care process. This study focuses on the Pregnant Woman, Baby, and Postpartum Woman's House because it is a space dedicated to maternal-fetal care. The investigation was guided by the guidelines of public policies for the humanization of care, with emphasis on the National Humanization Policy (PNH), the Stork Network, and the Alyne Network, which guide more welcoming, safe, and respectful practices. Data collection was developed from bibliographic research on central topics in the area of humanization and maternal-fetal health, in addition to documentary research and semi-structured interviews with pregnant women, postpartum women, and health professionals from the institution, seeking to capture perceptions, experiences, and practices surrounding humanized care. This research adopts a qualitative approach, of an exploratory and descriptive nature. As an evaluative perspective, the in-depth evaluation approach proposed by Rodrigues (2008) is adopted, considering its four analytical axes: content analysis, context analysis, institutional trajectory, temporal and territorial spectrum. The data analysis was conducted using the content analysis technique, as proposed by Bardin (2016) and Minayo (2004), analyzing the interpreted central theme, allowing for an accurate reading of the narratives and relationships established in the investigated context. The results indicated that the CGBP (Comprehensive Care for Pregnant Women) does indeed promote humanized and welcoming care; however, there are some issues that deserve attention. The findings of the evaluative research on what needs improvement demonstrate the absence of medical care, limitations in the daily monitoring of pregnant women, delays in ambulance transport, and a lack of specialized support in nutrition, psychology, and neonatology. The users also highlighted the discomfort of the beds and dissatisfaction with the meals. The professionals confirmed these complaints and emphasized the need for in-person training and greater knowledge sharing among the teams. Finally, the creation of the CGBP (House for Pregnant, Baby and Postpartum Women) is part of a process of idealizing increasingly humanized care, concerned with the health and well-being of pregnant and postpartum women. The institution conducts satisfaction surveys with users, in addition to having a space that increasingly seeks comfort and improved service to the population. Therefore, the research showed that the House for Pregnant, Baby and Postpartum Women of Fortaleza promotes welcoming and humanized care, aligned with the guidelines of the National Humanization Policy (PNH) and the Stork Network (Rede Cegonha). However, challenges related to physical structure, transportation, specialized support, and team training persist. It is concluded, therefore, that the CGBP represents an important advance, but one that requires continuous improvement to consolidate comprehensive maternal and child care practices.

It brought together a variety of disparate legislation and consolidated it with the former 1981 Building and Bylaws Code. Its purpose was to serve as a legal framework for regulating various situations considered to be municipal jurisdictions. Influenced by federal legislation, particularly the 2001 City Statute, the Ceará legislation is based, among other things, on modernizing law enforcement, improved urban planning, and increased social participation. To observe these changes, the Messejana Fair, held in a public space, designated for commerce and an environment conducive to social and cultural interactions, serves as an example to see whether the improvements that justified the new City Code are being fully implemented. Several scholars such as Estima Giacobbo and Hermany (2023), Da Silva Araújo (2024), Dias (2025), Levin (2016), Placha (2011), among others, advocate in their works for legislation and government action that respects the various forms of occupation of public spaces, combating state problems and allowing public participation. Therefore, given the context, the general objective of this research is to evaluate in depth (Rodrigues, 2008) the implementation of the City Code of Fortaleza (CE), as a public policy that aims to regulate and organize commercial activities carried out in public spaces of the municipality, having as its territorial scope the century-old Feira Livre de Messejana. This research is qualitative, exploratory, and analytical in nature. Data collection will be based on bibliographic and documentary research, as well as semistructured interviews with vendors and the public at the Messejana market (Minayo, Deslandes, and Gomes, 2009). Documentary Analysis and Thematic Content Analysis were used to analyze these data, based on predefined categories and openness to field categories (Bardin, 1977; Dias; Mishima, 2023). Based on the evaluative research on the implementation of the urban planning policy, the following findings are highlighted: (i) Although it presents innovations, the urban space regulation policy does not demonstrate a significant difference from the similar norm that preceded it; (ii) It was demonstrated that the policy's content does not maintain a strong influence on the context for which it is intended; (iii) The objectives inserted by virtue of the policy's implementation in 2019 still lack stability in terms of their implementation and delivery; (iv) The proposed cut is maintained, mainly, due to its condition of offering an option for the popular classes, also counting, in this case, with its historical aspect; (v) No elements were identified that corroborate the state's promise of modernization or of opening up space for social participation in the institutional trajectory of the policy; (vi) Regarding the characteristics related to the temporality and territoriality of the policy, oversight did not provide greater understanding of its rights and duties, characterizing it as a punitive or corrective measure. Thus, based on the evaluative research, the importance and tradition of the Messejana Fair are evident. However, it suffers from the lack of public action involved in addressing the challenges arising from its position within the urban cultural, social, and economic sphere. Therefore, it is recommended to expand spaces for participation in the formulation, implementation, monitoring, and evaluation of policies for organizing urban space, based on the perspectives and voices of the municipality's open-air markets Tipo: Dissertação Wed, 01 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT http://repositorio.ufc.br/handle/riufc/83392 2025-01-01T00:00:00Z http://repositorio.ufc.br/handle/riufc/83166 Título: Avaliação da implementação do novo Bolsa Família com enfoque no acompanhamento de condicionalidades do município de Fortaleza/CE no biênio de 2023-2024 Autor(es): Cunha, Guilherme Arraes Alencar Abstract: Established by Law No. 14,601 in 2023, the New Bolsa Família (n-PBF) represented the resumption of the conditional cash transfer social program for families in vulnerable situations after the Auxílio Brasil program was in effect in 2021 and 2022. The new version presented proposals that included updating CadÚnico information, changes in the amounts allocated to families assisted by the program, and promoting access to social programs by promoting initiatives that strengthen intersectoral coordination between public policies on social assistance, education, and health. In a context of declining vaccination coverage, increasing food insecurity, and weakening monitoring of educational and health conditions, the n-PBF emerges in a complex scenario of beneficiary monitoring in Brazilian municipalities starting in 2023. Thus, taking into account the dynamics of Brazil's socioeconomic reality in light of the new version of the social program, this dissertation aims to evaluate the implementation of the n-PBF in the municipality of Fortaleza, Ceará, focusing on the monitoring of beneficiary conditions in municipal management during the years 2023 and 2024. The research adopts a methodology combining quantitative and qualitative aspects, with procedures for literature review, documentary research, and analysis of data from the evaluated public policy. The dissertation addresses changes in the program's design and the consolidation of the n-PBF, a survey of proposals from federal agencies in setting goals for the program's conditionalities, and the results achieved by the municipality of Fortaleza in indicators related to health and education conditionalities during the period evaluated. The results indicate that Fortaleza, like Brazil, has made progress in covering health and education conditionalities by aligning the monitoring indicators evaluated with the management expectations recommended by the Federal Government, evidencing the restructuring of Bolsa Família as a social program to combat poverty and provide vulnerable families with access to social policies in the country. However, monitoring education and health conditionalities requires proposals for coordination in terms of Fortaleza's management, considering the challenge of expanding the results projected for the coming years, based on the expected metrics for Brazil.
