A sustentabilidade socioeconômica das Organizações da Sociedade Civil do Ceará: uma análise do Projeto OSC Legal

Abstract

The present work aims to observe the effects caused on the socioeconomic sustainability of 31 Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) from Ceará, which participated in the OSC Legal training project, designed and implemented by the Center for Operational Support of Civil Society Organizations, Civil and Consumer (CAOSCC) of the Public Prosecutor's Office of the State of Ceará. In addition, it aims to discuss the concepts of the third sector, the role it has in guaranteeing and effective and public policies in Ceará and Brazil, from authors such as Silva (2008), Silva (2010), Lopes (2019) and Brasil (1998). It also presents the models of public administration that operate in a symbiotic way to date from the authors Oliveira (2010) and Campelo (2010), as well as addressing the concept and field of public policies from Secchi (2010) and Souza (2003). The sustainability approach considered in this research is part of the authors Kuzma, Doliveira e Silva (2017) and Armani (2004), presenting the three dimensions of sustainability (social, economic and environmental) and the main challenges faced by CSOs today. The research is qualitative and is characterized as a case study, from the analysis of the responses of the feedback form of the OSC Legal project prepared by CAOSCC. Finally, it is possible to notice that the project provoked reflections on the planning culture of the institutions participants, since significant percentages stated that they recognized the need to implement changes in the strategies management, fundraising, project development and relationships with beneficiaries and partners after training.
