Sistema de segurança alimentar e nutricional: análise institucional dos processos de implementação em municípios do Estado da Paraíba de 2010 a 2018

Abstract

The present research aims to analyze the implementation processes of the Feed and Nutrition Security System in the cities of Paraíba that joined SISAN from 2010 to 2018 and as a research problem investigate to in what extent aspects related to decentralization in the administrative, fiscal and political dimensions, contribute to understand the SISAN implementation process in the cities of Paraíba that joined the Feed and Nutrition Security System from 2010 to 2018. A case study was carried out through a field research, with a descriptive and exploratory character and a qualitative research design. It was verified that five cities of Paraiba joined to the SISAN, being the cities of João Pessoa, Sumé, Monteiro, Patos and Cabedelo. The data collection was carried out through a semistructured interview with government and civil society actors that compose the instances of social control and coordination of the Feed and Nutrition Security Policy. It was inferred that the main obstacles to the institutionalization of the Policy in the cities correspond to the three dimensions of analysis in the aspects of intergovernmental relations (politics), institutionalization of the Intersecretarial Chamber of Food and Nutritional Security (CAISAN) and Municipal Council of Feed and Nutrition Security (administrative), as well as specific budget allocation for SAN actions (fiscal). It was also possible to measure that managerial understanding is crucial for the implementation and conduct of SAN public policies and that inconsistency with the objectives of the policy can make it ineffective.
