Difusão do ODS 5 no Brasil: uma análise a partir do "ciclo de vida" da norma

Abstract

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) emerged within a context of complexification of the international agendas. In this sense, the formulation of the agenda had a strong participation of the UN member states, as well as the civil society. With regard to women's rights, the work of the Post-2015 Women's Coalition was highlighted, which acted directly in the construction of SDG 5, which discusses gender equality. The Brazilian State was one of the signatory states of Agenda 2030, committing to their goals and objectives. In this sense, the present study sought to analyze whether there was an effective diffusion of SDG 5 to the Brazilian institutional context, based on an institutionalist approach to the norm “life cycle”. This concept is based on three main stages of the diffusion process: the emergence of the norm, the cascade of the norm and, finally, the internalization of the norm. In addition, a Systematic Literature Review was conducted, as well as an exploratory-deductive research of Brazilian government, UN and civil society organizations databases to analyze SDG 5 indicators. This process has highlighted the institutional neglect and dismantling of the implementation and monitoring of the SDGs. Thus, the cycle of the norm in Brazil was restricted to a formal international commitment, that, in practice, did not produce and finalize an effective process of the SDG 5 targets, since gender inequality is still an alarming problem in the Brazilian context.
