Citizen participation in policy and planning process in local government in Lesotho : a case of Qacha's NekMothepu, Thabang Azael 02 October 2013 (has links)
The study focuses and explores citizen participation in the policy and planning process in local government in Lesotho. The study argues that citizen participation in the policy and planning process is important. This is because it is through citizen participation that the government is rendered accountable and responsive to the needs of the local community. Secondly, citizen participation is important in that it helps in the deepening of democracy. In Lesotho, citizen participation has been encouraged by the different governments since the era of Moshoeshoe to the present regime. Lesotho held the first democratic local government elections in 2005. One of the objectives of introducing local government is to foster citizen participation in policy and planning processes.
The interviews conducted reveal that citizen participation is taking place even though at a minute degree. Several challenges exist in local government that hinder active and effective citizen participation in local government in Lesotho. One of the major challenges impeding citizen participation is the statutory framework regulating citizens’ participation in local government. This study has found that there is no direct legal or policy framework regulating or enforcing citizen participation in local government. Coupled with this challenge is another crucial challenge relating to the structure and mechanisms that are used for citizen participation. The study reveals that the structures and mechanisms are not adequate to enhance and encourage citizen participation.
Pursuant to this, the study proposes some reforms with a view to improving citizen participation in Lesotho. Firstly, the study proposes that the policy and legislative frameworks be improved so as to provide enough scope and space for citizen participation. These frameworks should provide for adequate structures, mechanisms as well as processes and areas that can improve citizen participation in local government. Secondly, crucial instruments for community participation in planning such as the IDP, budget process and the performance management in South African context can be designed with specific cognisance of the structures established. Thirdly, the government must encourage, educate and sensitize citizens to actively take part in local government, through capacity building programmes. It can take the advantage of the NGOs already working with the communities and citizens as a strategy to enhance citizen participation. / Public Administration & Management / M. Admin.

Stakeholder participation in the establishment of the Berg Catchment Management Agency, South Africa.Gueze, Humberto. January 2007 (has links)
<p>Enacted in 1998, the New South African Water Act has introduced a new approach to water resource management, founded on the principle of decentralization of the management of water resources to regional and local levels and the public participation. The approach has been captured in the new National Water Act (Act 36 of 1998), which allows the establishment of Catchment Management Agencies. The overall purpose of this study was to understand the trends of public participation in the establishment of Catchment Management Agencies in South Africa, by presenting the case of the Berg Catchment Management Agency.</p>

ParticipaÃÃo social no desenvolvimento de polÃticas pÃblicas no Estado do AmapÃ: um olhar sobre a elaboraÃÃo e execuÃÃo do Plano Plurianual de MacapÃ-AP no perÃodo de 2013 a 2016 / Social participation in the development of public policies in the State of AmapÃ: a look at the preparation and execution of the Multi-Year Plan of MacapÃ-AP in the period from 2013 to 2016Alexandre Gomes Galindo 17 March 2017 (has links)
CoordenaÃÃo de AperfeÃoamento de Pessoal de NÃvel Superior / Esta Tese tem como escopo principal apresentar o resultado do estudo sobre o processo de interlocuÃÃo entre integrantes da sociedade civil e o poder pÃblico em Macapà (capital do estado do AmapÃ), dando relevo à anÃlise das dinÃmicas de participaÃÃo de membros da sociedade no processo polÃtico de elaboraÃÃo e execuÃÃo do planejamento municipal, atravÃs da implantaÃÃo de um desenho institucional de gestÃo compartilhada proposto pela equipe de governo que assumiu a administraÃÃo pÃblica durante o perÃodo de 2013 a 2016. Sem a pretensÃo de apresentar avaliaÃÃes de resultados e efetividades das polÃticas pÃblicas implementadas no recorte temporal estabelecido, no atual estudo englobaram-se os seguintes objetivos integrados: a) Descortinar elementos que contextualizam a ambiÃncia macapaense sob a perspectiva do seu desenvolvimento e da configuraÃÃo de sua elite polÃtica local; b) Resgatar as caracterÃsticas das dinÃmicas institucionais de gestÃo participativa induzidas pela Prefeitura do MunicÃpio de Macapà relacionadas à elaboraÃÃo e execuÃÃo do Plano Plurianual, no perÃodo de 2013 a 2016; e, c) Apontar avanÃos, apropriaÃÃes, conflitos, dificuldades e desafios vinculados ao desenho institucional de gestÃo participativa implementado pela equipe de governo que assumiu a administraÃÃo pÃblica do MunicÃpio de Macapà no ano de 2013. No resgate contextual, evidenciou-se que a criaÃÃo do Estado do AmapÃ, em 1988, tornou-se uma linha divisÃria que marca o inÃcio do desenvolvimento de profundos processos de transformaÃÃo espacial, social, econÃmica e polÃtica no MunicÃpio de MacapÃ, inclusive com renovaÃÃo das elites polÃticas locais. Os resultados apontaram para a identificaÃÃo de componentes que integram grupos familiares, partidos polÃticos e lideranÃas locais envolvidos na esfera polÃtica macapaense. Ao analisar as intencionalidades declaradas de abertura de canais de diÃlogo com a sociedade, e de gestÃo da participaÃÃo nos processos de elaboraÃÃo e execuÃÃo do planejamento municipal, constatou-se que, em 2013, ocorreram os maiores esforÃos de mobilizaÃÃo para elaboraÃÃo compartilhada do planejamento municipal e de alocaÃÃo de recursos em programas de gestÃo da participaÃÃo no planejamento plurianual do municÃpio. O governo que assumiu a gestÃo pÃblica municipal no perÃodo de 2013 a 2016 implantou experiÃncias participativas com modelos e denominaÃÃes variadas como âO Povo no Comandoâ, âCongresso do Povoâ e âPrefeitura na sua Ruaâ, alterando a abordagem dada ao relacionamento com a sociedade a partir da segunda metade de seu mandato. Por mais que o modelo de gestÃo participativa adotado no municÃpio tenha gerado avanÃos e empoderamentos, tambÃm apresentou evidÃncias de conflitos, limitaÃÃes e desafios. Mesmo nÃo sendo propÃsito do presente estudo avanÃar no domÃnio da pragmÃtica, os resultados permitem inferir que, partindo-se do desenho de gestÃo adotado pela Prefeitura Municipal de MacapÃ, nos anos de 2013 a 2016, e das percepÃÃes sobre seu processo de implantaÃÃo, desponta a necessidade de reduÃÃo da centralidade do governo na gestÃo das InstituiÃÃes Participativas e da efetiva ampliaÃÃo do processo participativo para alÃm das etapas iniciais de elaboraÃÃo do PPA, LDO e LOA, visando superar as dificuldades encontradas no acompanhamento das aÃÃes de fiscalizaÃÃo e controle, e no acesso dos representantes da sociedade aos vÃrios setores da prefeitura. / The main scope of this work is to present the results of a study on the process of interlocution between members of the civil society and the public power in the city of MacapÃ, the capital of the Brazilian State of AmapÃ. This thesis brings to light the analysis of the dynamics of participation of members of society in the political process of elaborating and executing the municipal planning. This was possible through the implementation of an institutional design of shared management proposed by the government team that took office between 2013 and 2016. The present work does not aim to present evaluations of results and effectiveness of the public policies implemented in these four years. In the present study, the following integrated objectives were included: a) To reveal elements that contextualize the ambience in Macapà from the perspective of its development and the configuration of its local political elite; b) To review the characteristics of the institutional dynamics for a participatory management induced by the local executive branch of Macapà related to the elaboration and execution of a multi-annual plan, from 2013 to 2016; and, c) To point out advances, appropriations, conflicts, difficulties and challenges related to the institutional design of participatory management implemented by the government team that took office in MacapÃ, in 2013. During the contextualization of the data, it became evident that the creation of the State of Amapà in 1988 was a dividing line that marked the beginning of the development of deep spatial, social, economic and political transformation processes in the municipality of MacapÃ, including the renewal of local political elites. The results lead to the identification of components that integrate family groups, political parties and local leaders involved in the political sphere of the city. When the declared intentions of opening channels of dialogue with the society, and the participation management in the processes of elaboration and execution of municipal planning were analyzed, it was verified that the greatest efforts of mobilization for shared elaboration of the municipal planning and allocation of resources in programs to manage participation in the multi-annual plan took place in 2013. The government that took office from 2013 to 2016 implemented participatory experiences with different models and names, such as O povo no commando, Congresso do povo e Prefeitura na sua rua. These experiences changed the approach given to the relationship with society in the last half of its four-year term. Although the model of participatory management adopted in the municipality has generated advances and empowerment, it also presented evidence of conflicts, limitations and challenges. Even though the purpose of this study is not to advance in the field of pragmatics, the results allow us to infer that, starting from the management design adopted by the municipality of MacapÃ, from 2013 to 2016, and from the perceptions about its implantation process, there is a need to reduce the centrality of the government in the management of participatory Institutions and the effective broadening of the participatory process beyond the initial stages of preparation of the Multi-annual Plan, the Budget Directive Law and the Annual Budget Law. These steps aim to overcome the difficulties faced during the monitoring of controlling actions, and in the access of different members of the civil society to the various sectors of the city hall.

O problema da participaÃÃo nos DiÃlogos de PlatÃo: FÃdon, RepÃblica, ParmÃnides e SofistaOtacilio Luciano De Sousa Neto 09 June 2017 (has links)
CoordenaÃÃo de AperfeÃoamento de Pessoal de NÃvel Superior / Este trabalho visa investigar a participaÃÃo e a predicaÃÃo em PlatÃo atravÃs dos diÃlogos FÃdon, RepÃblica, ParmÃnides e Sofista. Cabe portanto questionar: o que à participaÃÃo? De que modo a participaÃÃo pode fundamentar a predicaÃÃo? HÃ, na obra de PlatÃo, um sentido unÃvoco de participaÃÃo? Para encontrar respostas para estas perguntas a pesquisa atentarà para as primeiras definiÃÃes de participaÃÃo e de que maneira ela se sustenta, ou nÃo, na sequÃncia dos argumentos e das obras. De inÃcio, à possÃvel conceber, a partir do FÃdon, que a noÃÃo de participaÃÃo em PlatÃo à tal que um ente sensÃvel participa de uma Forma de modo que recebe um predicado em razÃo desta relaÃÃo. PorÃm, compreende-se que esta definiÃÃo de participaÃÃo nÃo à suficiente para dar conta de explicar todos os modos nos quais a participaÃÃo aparece em PlatÃo, sobretudo no fim do FÃdon e na RepÃblica (476a). Assim, a pesquisa investiga as crÃticas que o ParmÃnides elabora acerca de como a participaÃÃo à compreendida e sonda se à possÃvel que o Sofista complemente o sentido de participaÃÃo anteriormente apresentado.

Economic, Social And Political Participation Of The Youth In Urban South-eastern AnatoliaOzdemir, Caner 01 September 2010 (has links) (PDF)
This study aims to find out the patterns of economic, social and political participation of the youth in urban South-eastern Anatolia Region of Turkey. Analyses of the data reveal that youth in the South Eastern Anatolia Region does not and cannot participate in various dimensions of the society. Youth in South-eastern Anatolia cannot participate into the labour market. There are too limited job opportunities in the region. On the other hand, working young people are prone to low quality working conditions. Young people also cannot participate into the social life in the public sphere. Social and economic pressures and lack of opportunities are limiting young people in a social life mainly in the private sphere within a closed community. Finally, youth in South-eastern Anatolia Region are keeping themselves away from political mechanisms. Political structure is not attracting young people because of the negative experiences that the people participated in politics having for years.
One of the most important findings of the study is that different dimensions of participation namely participation in the labour market, participation in social life and political participation are dependent on each other. Another result is that both the level and experiences of youth participation are highly determined by the social characteristics such as gender, family background, education level and age.
