This article investigates the effect of gender equality frames on public support for economic relief policies in the context of the Covid‐19 pandemic and economic crisis. Data stem from a survey experiment conducted in the German‐speaking part of Switzerland during Summer 2021. In the survey, a representative sample of the population was asked to read descriptive texts randomly using gender equality or universal frames about two different economic relief policies, before rating the policies. Results show that gender equality frames do not have a significant effect on public support for the economic relief policies during the crisis. This paper solidifies previous findings regarding emergency settings and public policy support by showing that a crisis setting strongly increases public policy support. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper addresses the development of handicrafts in the municipality of Alcântaras, in Ceará, as an initial contribution to a master's research begun in 2024. The objective was to reveal the development of the craft activity in the small town of Alcântaras and how this activity has contributed to generating income alternatives for the communities and districts of the municipality. The methodology relied on bibliographic research, exploratory fieldwork with observations, and photographic records. Thus, it was possible to identify the types of crafts present in commercial spaces and the public policies that have contributed to promoting handicrafts in this small town. However, following the work of artisans, either in the market space or through projects supported by cultural funding programs, brings us back to questions about the concept of success and survival. The research will continue, and through field visits, we hope to add further questions to the debate, such as the entrepreneurial perspective in handicrafts. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Improving the position of the primary sector in agri-food value chains is a high priority on the EU public agenda, with the promotion of cooperation and the cooperative movement serving as key instruments for achieving this goal. However, to implement public policies that strengthen the position of farmers within these value chains, rigorous studies must be conducted. This research has a twofold purpose: firstly, to evaluate and, if necessary, design public policies aimed at determining the extent to which these policies are successfully improving the position of farmers in the value chain; and secondly, to address a less-explored issue in the literature, which is to enable agents operating within the same link of the chain to adopt measures that enhance their efficiency, based on the signals emitted by the chain itself regarding costs, prices, and margins. In this context, this paper focuses on analyzing the extra virgin olive oil value chain over two seasons, 2018/2019 and 2019/2020, to demonstrate the value chain's usefulness in achieving the aforementioned objectives. The results indicate that the weakest link in the chain is the primary sector, specifically the olive sector. However, the primary processing sector, which includes oil mills where cooperatives play a leading role, also experienced losses in both seasons. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper analyzes the effects of an innovative writing of an SMS (closer, more personal and motivational), conceived as a nudge, in a recruitment process take-up. The case of study is a labor and social inclusion program driven by the Barcelona City Council and the Spanish Ministry for the Inclusion, Social Security and Migration. An RCT experimental analysis have been developed based in 446 individuals, complemented by a focus group with participants of the service. The results show that the type of SMS has a small but statistically significant effect on the success of the recruitment (which, at the same time, depends on other multiple considered factors, both at individual and household levels). The improvement, though limited (6,4% of the take-up), practically implies zero cost (that is, modifying the writing of the SMS). When analyzing the effects of the type of SMS on each of the recruitment phases, some nuances appear regarding the role of motivation on each stage. Lastly, some possibilities for improving the design of nudges in recruiting processes are suggested, with an applicability that is extensible to many interaction processes between public administration and citizens.

RESUMO Neste artigo, discutimos a afetividade e a imaginação como funções psicológicas superiores a partir do uso de mapas afetivos na pesquisa e intervenção em psicologia como uma abordagem que pode utilizar os desenhos e metáforas como recursos. Como exemplo, apresentamos resultados de seu uso junto a usuários de políticas de educação, de saúde e de assistência social, moradores de uma comunidade na região metropolitana de Fortaleza, Ceará. Concluímos que a psicologia deve considerar também, em sua atuação em políticas públicas, as capacidades criativas e emancipatórias para a superação das vulnerabilidades e desigualdades sociais.

Objetivo. Sistematizar evidências sobre o efeito de intervenções mundiais para a redução do consumo e/ou venda de bebidas alcoólicas. Método. Mapa de evidências que, a partir de buscas em nove bases bibliográficas, incluiu 182 estudos de revisões sistemáticas com ou sem metanálises, revisões de intervenções e revisões de revisões. Os estudos avaliaram o efeito de intervenções - agrupadas em conjuntos abrangentes de ações: comunicação para mudança de comportamento; ambientes promotores da saúde e mudanças dos sistemas - sobre dois desfechos de interesse: redução de consumo e redução da compra e/ou venda de álcool. Resultados. Foram registradas 207 associações entre diferentes intervenções e desfechos, com destaque para intervenções de comunicação para mudança de comportamento (81,64%) e para o desfecho de redução de consumo (98,55%). A maioria das associações apresentou efeito positivo (40,58%), inconclusivo (28,99%) ou potencialmente positivo (26,57%). Das intervenções com resultado positivo ou potencialmente positivo, destacam-se o monopólio de vendas de bebidas alcoólicas pelo governo, controle de densidade de pontos de venda, cobrança de preço mínimo por unidade, advertências sanitárias em rótulo de bebidas alcoólicas e múltiplas intervenções integradas. Conclusão. Espera-se que o presente mapa auxilie formuladores de políticas públicas e profissionais de saúde na adaptação de experiências para seus contextos de atuação, estimulando ações intersetoriais para reduzir o consumo de álcool.

Este texto trata dos direitos de cidadania, conquistados no Brasil nos anos 1980, e inscritos na Constituição Federal vigente, promulgada em 1988. Centrando-se nos idosos, atem-se aos direitos sociais desse segmento, regidos pelos princípios da igualdade, equidade e justiça social, cuja garantia requer legislação específica e compromisso do Estado com a oferta eficaz de políticas públicas sob efetivo controle da sociedade.

The environmental regulation of continental fish farming in Brazil is closely linked to land occupation and use. Areas used for this activity are mostly located in permanent preservation areas (PPA), close to rivers and springs, demonstrating the necessity of regulating this activity for its compliance with public policy. Santa Catarina is a leading state in fish farming and one of the first to regulate the use of PPAs. The feasibility of a proposal for environmental compensation to regularize the use of PPAs in Santa Catarina for fish farming; was therefore, assessed. The results showed that 74% of the fish farms analyzed need to regularize the occupation of production structures in PPAs. Regarding the proposed index of compensation for use in PPAs, the environmental compensation factor (ECF), through evaluation of the individual maps and subsequent integrated evaluation, all the fish farms identified with environmental liabilities in occupation had ratios of 1:2 and 1:3, and this index is a viable alternative for environmental regularization of the activity. It was further proposed that ECF be applied to small fish farms of up to four fiscal modules and that they have a standard minimum occupancy profile in relation to the total area of the property, as assessed in the present study.

Este trabajo investigativo tuvo como finalidad analizar la asignación presupuestaria y su incidencia en la toma de decisiones del Gobierno Descentralizado Parroquial del Anegado, periodo 2021, donde se determinó la problemática sobre algunas debilidades que presenta la institución, como el limitado manejo de la ejecución presupuestaria, la limitada planificación de manera ordenada para llevar de manera efectiva el desarrollo de todas las actividades acorde a las necesidades básicas y al desarrollo de los proyectos en beneficio de la comunidad. La metodología fue no experimental, descriptiva y correlacional con enfoque cualitativo, acompañado por los métodos Inductivo, deductivo, y las técnicas de la entrevista a la presidenta y la encuesta dirigida a los 12 empleados del Autónomo Descentralizado y 185 habitantes de la parroquia El Anegado. Los resultados demuestran que la asignación presupuestaria no satisface de manera correcta las necesidades de los diferentes sectores de la zona rural que pertenecen a la parroquia, la limitación en la práctica de los manuales que están en la institución, existe limitado manejo en la parte organizativa y administrativa para que se lleve a efecto una excelente toma de decisiones. Se concluye que la institución presenta un limitado nivel de coordinación y control en el manejo de las actividades planificadas, además el trabajo debe ser coordinado y bien planificado, acorde a la asignación presupuestaria y a la toma de decisiones. Desde esta perspectiva se consideró importante realizar un artículo científico de los resultados obtenidos en el proceso investigativo.

A partir de uma revisão sistemática de alcance na literatura sobre televisão universitária produzida nos últimos dez anos, este artigo buscou compreender quais os conceitos de TV universitária usados em pesquisas científicas e suas relações com os estudos de políticas públicas. A investigação foi realizada em trabalhos publicados entre os anos de 2014 e 2023 em dois tipos de bases de dados: 11 revistas científicas de Comunicação Social e anais de três congressos de pós-graduação na área. Em tais repositórios, 17.105 títulos foram pesquisados para este levantamento. Nesse universo, apenas 25 artigos corresponderam aos critérios adotados no protocolo de buscas desta investigação e, por isso, foram selecionados para análise. O resultado aponta para uma carência de estudos acadêmicos recentes sobre TV universitária e para a escassez de pesquisas que tragam correlação com os estudos sobre políticas públicas. Além disso, verificou-se grande heterogeneidade conceitual sobre o veículo, com prevalência de uma definição fortemente associativista.

O presente artigo examina as políticas de reforma agrária e assistência social no Brasil a partir de uma pesquisa de campo realizada no assentamento fundiário Pastorinhas. A origem desse território está relacionada à promessa de implementação de uma política pública de reforma agrária nos anos 1990, fato esse que levou um contingente de trabalhadoras/es rurais a ocuparem uma fazenda na zona rural de Brumadinho/MG. A pesquisa qualitativa buscou compreender como o acesso à terra e aos programas sociais permitiram que as famílias hoje assentadas no Pastorinhas superassem os desafios enfrentados e construíssem uma vida mais digna.

RESUMO A cidade de São Paulo é caracterizada, historicamente, por expressivas desigualdades socioeconômicas estruturais. O seu enfrentamento demanda novas formas de gestão da política pública, em razão de ser incontornável o desafio de torná-la uma cidade sustentável. Este ensaio apresenta evidências de como sustentabilidade e redução das desigualdades conformam um processo socioeconômico de natureza unitária. As próximas gestões municipais serão demandadas a realizar um esforço significativo nessa direção, que se faz necessário, tanto para equacionar a crise urbana estrutural que caracteriza a cidade há várias décadas, quanto para mitigar os futuros riscos ambientais e sociais.

O presente trabalho, de cunho qualitativo, tem como objetivo discutir o histórico de políticas voltadas a pessoas com necessidades especiais no Brasil e apresentar a importância da ambiência pedagógica no processo de ensino-aprendizado desse público. A justificativa se dá pela necessidade de instrumentalizar as redes e respectivos docentes no acolhimento a esse público, focada não somente na socialização dos estudantes desse perfil, mas também na garantia de seu efetivo aprendizado. A metodologia se baseia em revisão da literatura, tendo sido utilizados como indexadores para pesquisa os seguintes termos: ambiência pedagógica, deficiência e inclusão. Ressaltamos que a escassez de produção bibliográfica acerca do assunto reforça a relevância deste estudo e a necessidade de se pensar e produzir conhecimento acerca do tema, esperando-se, por meio deste, inspirar educadores e pesquisadores no aprofundamento desta temática bem como em sua aplicação.

Inequality is a challenge for societies around the globe. In addition to its socio‐economic and political dimensions, inequality also has a territorial dimension. Focusing on educational inequality across regions, this article explores factors that shape regional differences in student enrolment and educational attainment in 14 OECD countries. The findings of the article suggest that a strong level of regional authority over education increases regional inequality in education. Further factors are regional differences in education expenditures and variation in the population size of regions. Low regional inequality in education seems to be explained by a low degree of regional authority or low differences in education spending. By examining regional inequality in education, the article enhances our understanding of the way multilevel governance influences the quality of life within regions. In particular, it highlights the impact of decentralization on territorial inequality. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The affirmation of the countryside education results from the struggle of movements and social organizations that come together to claim this right, seeking to recognize and strengthen country people. Despite this, this right has been denied to contryside population, which highlights the need for studies that can characterize and denounce the absence of this type of education in peasant territories. In this sense, this work aims to discuss the relationship between the countryside education and the educational practices developed by the Escola Municipal de Ensino Fundamental Unidoscente (EMUEF) Córrego Santa Filomena, located in Vila Pavão, State of Espírito Santo, Brazil, and demonstrates the contradictions between the guarantee of countryside education in the form of the law and its materiality. To this end, this text considers the ideas of Caldart (2012; 2004), Oliveira and Campos (2012), and Molina and Freitas (2011), which also support the analysis of data from exploratory research carried out on the topic. Although the aforementioned school is located in a rural area, the specificity of peasant peoples is not present in its pedagogical proposal. Finally, it is clear that the school community's demand for countryside education has represented an important strategy of resistance and tension in favor of the rights of peasant communities.

The present work establishes the interface between quilombola school education and rural education, to highlight the advancement of educational policies in Brazil, conceived with peasant subjects who live in quilombola communities. We propose to highlight the mobilization of organizations and social movements, as protagonists in the struggle to remain in their territories and in consolidating public policies that meet the demands of quilombola communities, based on the approval of specific curricular guidelines that guarantee equal conditions and access to public education. Quilombola and countryside education have specificities in their policies instituted by the State, considering the urgent need to overcome the historical conditions attributed to rural populations and quilombola communities. It is a research with a qualitative, bibliographical, and documental approach, which intends to list the main elements in the construction of the political pedagogical project of the Quilombola schools, based on the legislation, resolutions, and guidelines that support the interface between Countryside Education and quilombola education. Regarding the results achieved, we highlight the challenges for the implementation of such guidelines, with emphasis on the current Brazilian situation and the role that social movements assume in this context.

Deaf education has been a constant object of academic research, since there is tension over which educational approach will bring good results and, in the meantime, public policies have been guiding educational processes so that there is quality education for all. Its implementation, evaluation and inspection process has been a challenge for several Brazilian regions, therefore this theme is justified, because, in the face of this dark moment, deaf people urge for equitable education. Therefore, new educational behaviors need to enter the scene. After the readings and analyzes carried out on the corpus involved, it was found that, in the results presented in these works, the existing policies are not meeting the reality of the regions of the states involved, despite there being advances, but not so significant, due to the immensity that governs the singularities of a population that has a nationally recognized sign language, Libras. Another significant point concerns the constituent elements of teacher training policies and school curricula of educational systems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In the present text, we will address some conceptions of Environmental Education and their contributions within the school context, in dialogue with documents and curriculum guidelines. Additionally, we will also seek to propose a reflection on the importance of Public Policies for Environmental Education, as a contribution to the formal education. To this end, scientific productions were identified in databases and search engines such as Google Scholar and Scielo, highlighting texts linked to the study's theme. The results show a devaluation of Environmental Education in various documents governing the curricular organization in schools, especially in the National Common Curricular Base, revealing the presence of a conservative education with interests focused on market issues and, therefore, not encompassing previously achieved Environmental Education policies. Therefore, it is considered relevant to revisit environmental educational concepts, with an emphasis on critical approaches in pedagogical action as a social practice. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Poverty has multiple definitions and, therefore, some divergences related to its measurement. The study examines the determinants of poverty in Ecuador, a multidimensional phenomenon that includes a lack of resources and social exclusion. Using a descriptive and correlational approach, a binary logistic regression model is applied to analyze poverty risk based on housing type and access to basic services in urban and rural areas. The data comes from the National Employment, Unemployment, and Underemployment Survey conducted by INEC, and the results were analyzed using SPSS and Minitab software. The findings reveal marked differences between rural and urban areas in terms of access to infrastructure and basic services. In rural areas, a lower percentage of households have access to potable water, sanitation, and electricity compared to urban areas, reflecting inequality in quality of life. Rural housing tends to be less stable and lacks durable materials, which increases the risk of poverty. Additionally, factors such as the use of firewood for cooking and waste disposal through burning are common in rural areas. The research concludes that poverty in Ecuador is strongly influenced by structural and economic factors, such as dependence on primary sectors and the lack of productive diversification. It is recommended to implement comprehensive public policies that promote equitable access to basic services and improve living conditions in rural areas, aiming to reduce the gaps between urban and rural sectors and to combat poverty at a national level.

Parks are considered important for promoting sustainable development in cities and for offering ecosystem services. The environmental quality in the Parks and their anthropic occupation is a topic that must compose the public administration's agenda. The present dissertation analyzed the occupation of the Ecotouristic Park of Areia Branca (Três Fronteiras, State of São Paulo) and its environmental risks, making a historical-legal and environmental survey of the area, in addition to subsidiarily helping in the formulation of public policies for the place. The Areia Branca Ecotouristic Park is of fundamental importance for the preservation of ecosystem services in the region, as in addition to serving as a cradle and development of animals and plants, they also protect the soil from erosion by rainwater in the headwaters, in addition to contributing to with aquifer recharge. The Park area consists of a green belt of medium and large vegetation, extending beyond the park over an extensive area. In this way, it protects rivers and streams from the action of pesticides from crops present in the area, in addition to being used for leisure, sports and to contain fishing areas. This research aims to analyze the services of the ecosystems present in the Park and raise risk situations for the environmental quality of its surroundings. The diagnosis of the area was carried out through a survey of ecosystem services (provision, regulators, support and cultural services) in the study area and its surroundings, through direct observations of the location, verifying possible agents causing changes. The environmental assessments of the indicated ecosystem services will serve to support public managers and environmental agents so that they can adopt protective measures aiming at a local environmental conservation policy, with a view to the sustainable development of the area. In the Park area, the presence of regulatory, support, provision and cultural services was verified, whose classification was proposed by the "Millennium Ecosystem Assessment", based on the functionality of ecosystem services. The results obtained point to the existence of several services in the Park that contribute directly and indirectly to human well-being with relevant benefits for society, in terms of maintenance, recovery or improvement of local and regional environmental conditions.

The aim of this paper is to analyze the work of psychology professionals in the Unified Social Assistance System, emphasizing their insertion in the field of this public policy, as well as to demystify the psychologist's attributions in the day-to-day work with families and individuals in situations of vulnerability. The Unified Social Assistance System organizes the services of the Social Assistance Policy, and psychologists must be included in all levels of protection and services, obligatorily making up reference teams and having their work based on ethics and articulation with other public policies. In summary, the reflection in this paper contributes to improving the technical insertion of psychological practices in social assistance policy, as advocated by Resolution 17 of June 20, 2011, making psychologists an essential part of the actions in the Unified Social Assistance System. In turn, the methodology will be qualitative, searching literary sources for other studies that have already been demarcated and analyzed as similares cases in the theoretical-conceptual productions already developed in psychological science in the field of SUAS.
