Adesão à agenda ambiental na administração pública (a3p) nas práticas diárias dos colaboradores

Abstract

The adherence of sustainable principles to the daily activities of public management requires changes of attitudes and practices in order to minimize the social and environmental impacts of these recurring actions. The Agenda Ambiental na Administração Pública (A3P) is a government response to stimulate the incorporation of the principles and criteria of social and environmental management into the routine activities of public agencies. Towards that announced scenario, this research aims to investigate the adhesion of employees of a public agency to the A3P practices promoted by the institution. A qualitative study was conducted with interviews with a sample of the employees associated with the documental investigation of the foundation that was the target of the case study, as well as the information obtained by the researcher in active observation in this organization. The results obtained were analyzed using a linear approach, in a hierarchical way, whose construction took place from the bottom up, using content analysis from the categorical analysis technique. The analytical process is based on the elements of the practice, wich consists of the materials, meaning and the practical knowledge / competence. The results of analysis revealed in which stages of life the A3P practices are, where we can find that for sixteen investigated practices, three of them demonstrated an absence of the material element, two showed an absence of the element practical knowledge/competence and one revealed absence of those two elements at the same time.
