Programa Nacional da Alimentação Escolar - PNAE: fatores que implicam para avanços e desafios da implementação no Território do Mato Grande - RN. 2020. 94f. Dissertação (Mestrado em Estudos Urbanos e Regionais) - Centro de Ciências Humanas, Letras e Artes, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, 2020.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/handle/123456789/32405This work aims to carry out an evaluation of the implementation process of the National School Feeding Program (PNAE) in four municipalities in the Territory of Citizenship of Mato Grande, in the state of Rio Grande do Norte, from key actors, namely: responsible in the municipal governments for the implementation (public power) and the organizations of family agriculture (cooperatives, associations and rural unions). It is intended, on the one hand, to understand the view of managers regarding the implementation of this policy, what are the difficulties and challenges for its operation and, on the other hand, to analyze, from the point of view of the organizations benefiting from the policy, which are the main ones difficulties in accessing the PNAE. For the analysis, we used the data of the values transferred by the National Fund for School Development (FNDE) to the municipalities of the researched sample - CearáMirim, João Câmara, Touros and Pureza - allowing to contextualize the object (purchases from family farming) for the purpose of Law No. 11,947 / 2009. Seeking to understand the perception of the actors (civil society and public authorities) involved in the implementation of this public policy, we conducted semi-structured interviews with managers and representatives of family farming entities. From the study, it became evident that although there are still difficulties, the implementation of the PNAE in the Territory of Mato Grande has evolved, contributing to the flow (commercialization) of part of the production of family farming, generating income and allowing the permanence of these farmers and family farmers in rural areas.Acesso AbertoAvaliação de políticas públicasAgricultura familiarPrograma Nacional de Alimentação EscolarTerritórios da cidadaniamasterThesis
