I have dedicated the last ten years of
my life to encourage people to
participate in the policy to supervise the
use of public resources
contribute to the construction of
bills or promote
changes
I have done this through courses
workshops wheels of conversation a series of
ways to share some ideas
with these people seek to teach by
example how the budget works
how a camera works.
councilors and institutions
carry and how we can seek
influence them
but most of all I try to motivate the
people so that we can all
understand that the country and the society
people want to build
it will only come with the participation
each of us
the constitution of brazil who says
we have a participatory democracy and
representative representative because the
every two years we choose
representatives and we have to do
It keeps getting better but also
participatory
In other words, we have the right and
forms the duty to participate in decisions
they will accept our
own lives
but the question is how to participate
what are the ways to do this to
first way to join
it is very difficult to promote change
alone then we have to
organize in associations and movements
and non-governmental organizations
governmental organizations
and although we criticize the
Brazilian democracy and we do the
Why Brazil really was right.
innovative approach to the creation of
participation, then we have to
example the municipalities which
representatives of society and power
to discuss topics such as
urban health education urban mobility
we have the public hearings that are
meetings of two or three hours where the
government has an idea and the
citizen can suggest to present
criticisms take questions
We also have the budget
participatory which is a channel for those
can present our suggestions
for the use of public money which is a
our money
and today with technology we have a
series of social media tools
applications that allow even the
distance we can interact with the
governments and one thing that has gone very
in Brazil and seems even contradictory is the
public transparency legislation
not that it is always implemented more
today every government is obliged to disclose
in real time the public spending the
contract bids and more
information we know what the government
does what he can not do and we
so the condition of saying what people
I would like him to do this to us
has so many channels of participation because
a lot of people still do not participate
if one of you does not participate or someone
next to you, think about the
That’s why we can think together
a list of reasons you feel you have not
knowledge needed to participate
I find it very difficult to change think
is alone in this search at last the list
can be quite large
On the other hand, there are a lot of people in Brazil.
participating in the engagement is mobilized
the other question we can ask
because these people participate and
many social scientists
Political psychologists scientists sought
answer these questions
but more than the theories I wanted to bring
here for you some trajectories for
that we can meet and be inspired
a little bit more and I wanted to start
with the history of arimathea
the animatv lives in piauí and long before
corruption to become a major
concern of the Brazilian
perceived there in the piauí the effect of the deviation
of the public resource on quality of life
of people and more than this he
realized that it was necessary to put the
hand in the masses and monitor how
applied these resources and hoare matter
started to organize the march against
corruption and for life
the march literally a group that
walks through the interior of piauí
city to city under a scorching sun
monitoring the use of public resources
Federal passed by municipalities
so they arrive with a list of works
and will see if these works were indeed
built
of course they are unfortunately found
many irregularities and they join the
every night to go to class
of citizenship or show for the
people what they found but more
motivating and educating the
people so that they themselves continue to
public money of these
prefectures
The Leticia believes that the city must
be thought of for the people and
walking around the city is the best way to
people relate to or urban environment of
another form and after a trip where
she noticed too much sidewalk problems
frequent
she joined with some friends and founded
the foot sampa which is a sound organization
that seeks to stimulate
people walking the streets
to monitor the conditions of the
denounce when these sidewalks do not
are appropriate and influence the
public policies of the city so that
be more appropriate for the
people who walk and one of the great
achievements of the sampa
other collectives of são paulo was
to transform the São Paulo avenue that is
the car icon and an icon
paulo in a space that at the end of
open week for people to walk
has activities of culture and activities
sports
this is the djalma
djalma was a science student
very theoretical course.
abstract when inspired by his father
who took care of a vegetable garden he noticed
urban agriculture is a way of causing
transformations he wanted to see in the
world and where it has already begun to study
about agriculture has
sustainable technologies permaculture
was meeting other people who
work in this area
joined these people in São Carlos and
founded an organization called
veracity in São Carlos in the interior of
São Paulo and the city is a group
which seeks to disseminate
urban agriculture practices
transforming empty land into vegetable gardens
urban
sustainable technologies
to carry out environmental education and
seek to transform for example the
compost that is something we do
individually in a public policy
to gain scale so that people
conserves natural resources and
waste
another story of distress relief
as she herself says until she is 45 years old
I did not understand anything about politics.
worked for a large
communication when in islets the city
Where does she live in a very beautiful place?
in the south of the
construction of a large ore port
of iron
concerned with the environmental impacts
of this work she began to study with and
began to know the laws understand the
decision-making processes to visit the
councilors and the rescue made a great
campaign against the work but she realized
that more than saying no to a work that
could have an impact
she should also say yes to a
new development model and from the
from the perspective of sustainable cities
she founded in 2012 our islanders who are
an institution that works in the construction
public policies and the promotion of
citizenship in the island region and one
outstanding initiatives of our oil and
the eye call in the camera
councilmen
because when the institute was created
the city council did not disclose the
Sessions do not broadcast sessions
for the population to know what was
happening there and our islanders through
of this project started to make reports
about how the aldermen voted
Anyone’s the Minutes and the
session but more than that since the
camera does not broadcast the sessions they
his own camera would shoot the sessions
and broadcast online through youtube
obviously this has made the city
could discuss the quality of the camera
of councilmen and city councilors had
change some postures because they knew
that society was watching the camera
and how are you at ted river?
piracy
I wanted to bring two more stories of
piracy
the first of the bira the bira has already engaged
since child was born
community sources in the neighborhood
from pauliceia and 15 years ago
realizing that it lacked in piracicaba a
hip hop culture promotion space
started to occupy a community center
which was then abandoned and
has transformed this Community center into
home of hip hop that today is a space
for children and adolescents in the city
carry out a series of activities
artistic and cultural activities and 1
recent achievements of hip hop house
was based on the participatory budget
that is, seeking to influence the budget
have conquered resources for the
construction of skate park that today
largest skating rink in the city of
piracicaba and last but not least
important to my story I started to
to participate is to understand that it was
to engage in the student movement
giving voice to students and contributing
with the mobilization both to discuss the
quality of the course but also the great
questions that a young man at that time
should be to worry and after
formed with some people and
institutions, we realized that
I was missing here in the city of piracicaba
some initiative that would accompany
monitor the city hall and the chamber and
to carry out education actions for the
citizenship so that the citizen knows
how institutions and
rules of democracy and politics
it was when we founded the observatory
citizen of piracicaba in 2012 who as the
name says citizens are observing and
monitoring the city the public agencies
the quality of life
one of the actions I wanted to highlight is the
transparency monitoring
transparency is a fundamental aspect of
if we do not know what the power
public is we do not have the ability
to participate and when the public authority
the transparency that makes up the
corruption becomes much more restricted then
What we do is monitor if the power
public hearing in the case the city hall and
to citizens what they should
disclose by law
then we do this monitoring to
every six months
by means of a bulletin to
the media and do
meetings with those who make the decision to
show what in our point of view
It’s still not good what needs improvement.
and one of the great achievements of
observatory is that in 2012 the
transparency of the chamber was 30% and
now went to 84 percent ie
shows that the monitoring society has the
ability to influence the direction of
institutions and here is an example of
education for citizenship
Who knows how it works?
city budget
unfortunately we learn little about
this at our school
in our family and it seems so
complex but with some
simple methodologies, we can
learn how it works and from
to participate actively in the
building the budget and
and what stories
many different
are people with different trajectories
working in various topics some
people from the big city and from the interior
some started very early others
they started a little more adult
What these stories have in common is that
people can draw from these various
stories
I thought a lot I talked to these
people I know them
and for me there are three main things
that we can draw stories
different as these
the first question is that these people
they took responsibility for the
changes they wanted to see in the
society rather than delegate to
politician or other sector of the
society they understood that they
part of the change they wanted
see in the world
the second issue is that they joined
people is very difficult to cause
transformation alone but always has
someone on the side who thinks
people have similar dreams then we
you need to join in organizing and
The third issue is that these
put their hands on the dough
they did not expect all the
knowledge and skills they felt
they should have not been studying everything
what they needed to have studied them
understood that it was necessary to act
and that they will learn by hitting and I
learn by mistake
then these trajectories by more than
list of difficulties in participating in
can be very large.
show that if we take the
bring together people and
putting your hand in the dough it
transformations have a very beautiful text
dodô rubem alves that I really like that
When I read it to me, it was very
that he calls on politics and
gardening and in this text the rubem alves
he says that the collective space to
society and our communities and
cities are gardens and that when
assume a political position of
to transform this reality of care
this reality we are gardeners and it is
this invitation that I wanted to leave to
you so that each one of us who
they continue to make those who
still do not make you feel motivated
to do what in our communities in
Our city of our country
inspired by rubem alves and in these
stories we all become
gardeners of life in society in life
in common
thank you so much
