0406/2011 - Pobreza e Política Social: a implementação de programas complementares do Programa Bolsa Família Poverty and Social Policy: the implementation of complementary programs in the setting of the Bolsa Família Program
O Programa Bolsa Família articula a transferência de renda à implementação de programas complementares, a fim de promover o desenvolvimento de capital humano e a autonomização dos beneficiários. Para analisar a implementação dos programas complementares em Manguinhos, Rio de Janeiro, realizamos consultas documentais; grupos focais com beneficiários; entrevistas semi-estruturadas com atores governamentais, não-governamentais e beneficiários, além da coleta de dados secundários. O desenho, a cobertura e a avaliação dos programas complementares mostraram-se frágeis. Os beneficiários desconheciam cursos de qualificação profissional. Os gestores reconheceram a debilidade das ações e destacaram que os cursos do Próximo Passo não se adéquam à demanda local, ainda que pensados como estratégia de capacitação voltada às obras do Programa de Aceleração do Crescimento e à vocação turística da cidade do Rio de Janeiro. Considerando que a perspectiva de inclusão social está atrelada ao acesso às políticas públicas, a oferta e o acompanhamento destas ações pelas esferas governamentais e organizações civis constituem um eixo crucial para o combate à pobreza e à fome, contribuindo para as chamadas “portas de saída” do Programa Bolsa Família.

Abstract:
The Bolsa Família Program articulates cash transfer to the implementation of complementary programs, with the aim of promoting human capital development and empowering the beneficiaries. To analyse the implementation of complementary programs in Manguinhos, Rio de Janeiro, we performed document review; focus groups with beneficiaries; semi-structured interviews with governmental, nongovernmental stakeholders and beneficiaries and collected secondary data. The design, coverage and evaluation of the complementary programs have been precarious. Beneficiaries were unaware of vocational training courses. The program administrators admitted the activities’ weakness and emphasized that the courses offered by Próximo Passo are not adapted to the local demand, even though they were conceived as a vocational training strategy aimed at filling construction jobs in the Growth Acceleration Program and the tourist industry in the city. Considering that the social inclusion perspective is tied to access to public policies, the supply and follow-up of these activities by government agencies and civil society organizations are essential for the effectiveness of the fight against poverty and hunger, aimed at contributing to the “exit routes” from the Bolsa Família Program.
