Participação de servidores na melhoria da construção de política pública de assistência estudantil: o caso da UNILAB

Abstract

In view of the transformations felt in the context of higher education in Brazil leads us to a reflection on the involvement of one of the actors in the process of democratization and expansion of this education, the public servant. Thus, this article aims to analyze the perception of the technical administrative servers of a Federal Institution of Higher Education (IFES) in the construction of the student assistance policy. It presents the Unilab student assistance policies and the challenges of managers in the current socioeconomic situation of the country. It is characterized as a descriptive research of a qualitative nature, with the application of a questionnaire to the servers of the University of International Integration of Afro-Brazilian Lusophony (Unilab). With the results obtained, it was verified that the servers have a close look at the context of challenges and difficulties faced by the students and also by the management of the university, which are also integral and fundamental parts in this process of integration and internationalization. It was identified a limitation in the participation of the servers, which according to the respondents, is a consequence of the lack of incentive of management in actions aimed at improving the assistance policy.
