Autofinanciamento das ações de internacionalização do Instituto Federal da Paraíba em uma perspectiva orçamentária (2019 - 2023)

Abstract

The Internationalization Policy of the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology of Paraíba (IFPB) was approved by its Board of Governors through Ad Referendum Resolution No. 19 of April 24, 2018. However, it can be seen that internationalization actions were already taking place, as can be seen in IFPB's first Institutional Development Plan 2005 - 2009. The research focuses on the self-financing of the Institute's internationalization actions from 2019 to 2023. The budgetary outlook is applied here as a tool to help understand the management of resources earmarked for IFPB's internationalization. In this time frame, the actions were analyzed in relation to the axes of the Internationalization Policy and the performance indicators of the Ten-Year Strategic Plan (2016 - 2025). As far as methodology is concerned, the research is characterized by a qualitative approach, descriptive objectives, with document analysis as the technical procedure. Institutional documents published on the IFPB website were used as primary sources, such as: regulations, resolutions, recommendations, development plans, integrated reports, public notices and so on. After collecting the data, it was processed using the content analysis technique. The analysis allowed for significant inferences, and concluded that there has been no budgetary monitoring of self-financed internationalization actions, nor is there any systemic direction regarding budgetary availability, or centralized management of these resources. In view of this scenario, a technical report has been drawn up which, in addition to a situational analysis, presents suggestions and recommendations for monitoring these actions. This document, consolidated from a propositional analysis and designed in the form of a digital booklet, seeks to make a practical contribution to budget monitoring, based on a collaborative data panel.
