Destacam-se as organizações não governamentais internacionais, as ONGIs, ligadas a interesses ambientais, humanitários e de desenvolvimento social, porque nos últimos anos as suas operações têm aumentado em número e em complexidade devido ao incremento de desastres naturais, biológicos, conflitos civis, guerras e fome, demandando um número cada vez maior de pessoas disponíveis, preparadas e que almejem participar desse universo: os ativistas. Realizou-se uma análise das razões que levam os indivíduos a se sentirem atraídos por determinado tipo de atuação ativista. Usou-se uma abordagem a partir de aportes teóricos da Psicanálise, mais especificamente da Psicossociologia, partindo do pressuposto de que a ação ativista envolve a interação de processos psíquicos complexos, densos, ambivalentes, fundados nos desejos e interesses individuais e coletivos. O objetivo foi entender por que os indivíduos escolhem e se envolvem com organizações ligadas ao ativismo. Nesse sentido, a proposta é um deslocamento de estudo puramente descritivo de ocupação, trabalho, profissão e carreira dos ativistas, para uma análise sobre os sentidos da sua atuação. Pesquisa de natureza qualitativa, exploratória, foram entrevistados 14 ativistas que possuíam algum tipo de relação com essas organizações internacionais, independentemente de sua nacionalidade e local de atuação. A partir da Análise Temática, três temas emergiram: a) O compartilhamento de valores; b) Ser ativista e ter uma causa: “É assim que sou”!; c) As escolhas e suas ambivalências. Os resultados destacam a importância das escolhas individuais, a ênfase nos vínculos grupais e algumas tensões ligadas ao ser um ativista. / Several organizations in the contemporary world act on causes considered to be of global concern, beyond the traditionally established formal boundaries of states and nations. International nongovernmental organizations – INGOs stand out in this field, which are linked to environmental, humanitarian and social development interests, because in recent years their operations have increased in number and complexity due to the increase in natural, biological, civil conflicts, wars and hunger, demanding an increasing number of people that are available, prepared and willing to participate in this universe: the activists. We made an analysis of the reasons that lead individuals to be attracted to a certain type of activist activity, applying an approach based on theoretical contributions from Psychoanalysis, specifically from Psychosociology, based on the assumption that activist action involves the interaction of complex, dense, ambivalent psychic processes, based on individual and collective desires and interests. The goal was to understand why individuals choose and engage with organizations linked to activism. In this sense, the proposal is a displacement from a purely descriptive study of activists’ occupation, work, profession and career to an analysis about the meanings of their performance. We interviewed 14 activists who had some type of relationship with these international organizations, regardless of their nationality and place of performance, in a research of qualitative and exploratory nature. From the Thematic Analysis, three themes emerged: a) The sharing of values; B) Being an activist and having a cause: "That is how I am!"; C) Choices and their ambivalences. Our results highlight the importance of individual choices, the emphasis on group bonds and some tensions connected to being an activist.

According to the 2005 Ethiopian Demographic Health Survey, HIV prevalence in Gambella region where Fugnido refugee camp is located is 6%, which is the highest prevalence data recorded in the country. Similarly, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) Health Information System (HIS) demonstrates that Fugnido has the highest HIV prevalence compared to other refugee camps in Ethiopia and furthermore shows variation in prevalence among the two main ethnic groups in the camp, namely Agnuak and Nuer (about 8.5% and 2.3% respectively). The study seeks to investigate why a significant difference exists in the number of people with known HIV positive status among the Agnuak community compared to the Nuer community in the Fugnido refugee camp in Ethiopia. It does this by investigating factors that are presumed to explain HIV high risk-behaviour and vulnerability. This was a cross-sectional study of Agnuak and Nuer tribes living at the Fugnido refugee camp. The sampled population involved men and women refugees from the ages of 15 to 49 years. The study used a mixed method approach or methodological triangulation. Cluster sampling technique was used for the quantitative data collection. The sample size was 831 refugees (439 Agnuak and 390 Nuer). Seven (7) Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) and 3 Key Informant (KI) interviews was used for the qualitative data collection. Findings show that the Agnuak were almost 4 times (OR=3.8, 95% CI [1.9-7.4] p < 0.05) more likely to practice risky behaviour compared to 0.3 times (OR=0.3, 95% CI [0.1- 0.9] p < 0.05) likelihood among the Nuer refugees. Factors associated with differences in risky behaviour for both Agnuak and Nuer included, inter alia, primary education as the highest level of education attained, 50% among the Agnuak (OR=0.5, 95% CI [0.3-0.8] p < 0.05), compared to Nuer community’s 30% (OR=0.3, 95% CI [0.2-0.6] p < 0.05). Access to HIV and voluntary counselling and testing (VCT) services was lower for the Agnuak (OR=1.8, 95% CI [1.1-2.9] p < 0.05) compared to the Nuer (OR=2.9, 95% CI [1.6-5.1] p < 0.05). Unlike the Nuer refugees, the Agnuak refugees who had experienced forced sex (OR=7.3, 95% CI [2.9-18.8] p < 0.05) and had a positive attitude (lack of or reduced stigma) towards HIV (OR=2.1, 95% CI [1.3-3.7] p < 0.05) were more positively associated with risky 6 behaviour (than the Nuer). The Nuer had no factor associated with risky behaviour that was different from that of the Agnuak. The study revealed more Agnuak refugees than Nuer refugees had been engaged in risky sexual behaviour by having multiple sex partners and being involved in transactional sex. The Nuer was more closed and reserved to having sexual relations outside of their group than the Agnuak were which contributed to their relatively lower HIV prevalence. Furthermore, there was very low condom use among the Nuer community compared to the Agnuak community, which was based on differential attitudes between the two communities concerning trust of partner and monogamous relations. The study findings recommend that humanitarian workers and community partners need to collaborate to develop congruent HIV interventions that go beyond traditional strategies of distributing condoms and focus on correct and consistent use of condoms in the camp. Humanitarian and community workers’ understanding the socioeconomic context of the communities and the influence of cultural and other factors, including behaviour with intervention strategies,could also curb the epidemic. / Sociology / M.A. (Sociology)

Characteristics such as the profile, themes and principal activities, how the organizations fit into the public sector and their participation in social networks are observed. Thus common differences and similarities which serve as a means of indentification, take as reference the symbolic cartography of Boaventura of Sousa Santos. Since there are relatively few studies relating to civil society of Rio Grande do Norte and in particular, Natal, the starting point was the setting up of a database allowing for a general overview. Hence a panorama of the organizations could be observed: where they are located, when they were formed how they operate and their relationships with other sectors (the state, the market and civil society) in addition to basic facts and location. The principal lines of enquiry were a) the OSC which operate with the public comprising adolescents and young people and b) the OSC operating or having branches in four suburbs on the periphery of the western administrative region of the city (Felipe Camar?o, Bom Pastor, Cidade Nova and Guararapes).The present report has identified the impacts of ongoing social transformation caused by the process of globalization ,by the various currently contested political projects which are as follows: the project of neoliberal globalized capitalism(hegemonic)and the project of social emancipation (contra-hegemonic),how these are seen from the local viewpoint and how they influence the profiles and operation of the cartographic organizations. The area of the OSC is a heterogenous one with political, cultural and ideological strains, characterized by its infiltration, its local/global and multicultural dimensions. As civil organizations are fundamental in the processes of transformation within society, and following the idea of social emancipation referred to by Boaventura Santos, the enquiry classified the organizations according to the afore-mentioned characteristics, establishing eight types of associations. These different types and their respective characteristics were analysed from a related perspective using the mechanisms of symbolic cartography: scale, projection and symbolisation. The theoretical references underpinning this research arise from the debate on civil society which becomes redefined as a result of the dispute involving the two afore-mentioned political projects. These demand the theoretical application of the comprehension of heterogeneity in its diversity and complexity together with the idea of social emancipation.The main authors consulted were Boaventura de Sousa Santos, Antonio Gramsci, through the texts translated by Marco Aurelio Nogueira; Carlos Nelson Coutinho and Alberto Rivera ,who supported the construction of the types of associations identified by the local reality.Finally this research enabled an understanding of the current form of social action happening in the Space of the Four Neighbourhoods (Espa?o dos 4 Bairros) and how the distinct profiles analysed together with the ares of operation of the organizations define their emancipatory potencials within the following two poles: regulation/adaptation and emancipation/transformation / Esta pesquisa tem como objetivo realizar uma cartografia social com vistas a mapear e caracterizar as organiza??es da sociedade civil (OSC) que atuam com adolescentes e jovens da Regi?o Oeste da cidade de Natal, observando-se suas caracter?sticas quanto: ao perfil, temas, atividades principais, formas de inser??o no espa?o p?blico e participa??o em redes sociais, buscando identificar as diferen?as e semelhan?as que as singularizam e identificam. Uma vez que existem poucos estudos sobre o universo da sociedade civil do Rio Grande do Norte e de Natal, o ponto de partida foi a constru??o de um banco de dados objetivando construir uma vis?o geral, panor?mica dessas organiza??es - onde est?o, quando foram criadas, o que fazem, como se relacionam com os demais segmentos (Estado, Mercado, Sociedade Civil) - al?m de dados b?sicos formais e de localiza??o. Os principais recortes adotados foram: a) as OSC que atuam com o p?blico adolescente e jovem; e b) as OSC que atuam ou t?m sede em quatro bairros perif?ricos da Regi?o Administrativa Oeste da cidade (Felipe Camar?o, Bom Pastor, Cidade Nova e Guarapes). O presente estudo identificou como os impactos das transforma??es sociais em curso, motivadas pelos processos da globaliza??o, se manifestam no espa?o local e influenciam nos perfis e atua??o das organiza??es cartografadas. O campo das OSC ? um campo heterog?neo, com marcas pol?ticas, culturais e ideol?gicas, caracterizado pela sua capilaridade, sua dimens?o local/global e multicultural. Sendo as OSC um sujeito social de import?ncia fundamental nos processos de transforma??o, e tendo a id?ia de Emancipa??o Social em Boaventura de Sousa Santos, como refer?ncia, a pesquisa realizou uma classifica??o das organiza??es conforme o conjunto de caracter?sticas, j? mencionadas, estabelecendo oito tipos de associativismo. Esses tipos, e suas respectivas caracter?sticas foram analisadas numa perspectiva relacional, a partir dos mecanismos da Cartografia Simb?lica: a escala, a proje??o e a simboliza??o. Os referenciais te?ricos, que deram luz a presente pesquisa, foram: o debate sobre Sociedade Civil e a id?ia de Emancipa??o Social que se redefinem em meio ? disputa entre dois projetos pol?ticos - o projeto do capitalismo neoliberal globalizado (hegem?nico) e o projeto da emancipa??o social (contra-hegem?nico) - e exigem um esfor?o te?rico de compreens?o de sua heterogeneidade, diversidade e complexidade. Os autores centrais foram Boaventura de Sousa Santos, Antonio Gramsci, atrav?s das leituras trazidas por Marco Aur?lio Nogueira, Carlos Nelson Coutinho, al?m de Alberto Rivera que ap?ia a constru??o dos tipos de associativismo identificados na realidade local. Finalmente, a pesquisa permitiu conhecer como se configura, no presente momento, o campo social da sociedade civil que atua no Espa?o dos 4 Bairros e como os distintos perfis analisados e as ?reas de atua??o das organiza??es definem os potenciais emancipat?rios das mesmas, fazendo com que estas se movimentem ou se situem entre dois p?los: o p?lo da regula??o/adapta??o e o p?lo da emancipa??o/transforma??o

This research focused mainly on the progress of non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and community-driven development projects (CDDs) in assisting the Chris Hani District Municipality (CHDM) community. The research identified the main types of CDDs that are found in the CHDM as agricultural, caregivers, manufacturing, tourism, performing arts, and education services. Thirty-eight NGOs participated in this project with two participants representing each NGO. These NGOs were looked at from a thematic perspective. Three main themes emerged, namely; a) the quality of life in CHDM or specifically in the areas of operation of the NGOs, b) operations of the NGOs where the name and main objectives CDDs were identified, and c) challenges, funding and impact of the CDDs. This research set out to ask the following questions: What is the nature and origin of projects operational in Chris Hani District? What is the impact and sustainability of donor-aided projects on CDD in the Chris Hani District? Can NGO projects be sustained without donor aid? Are there any alternative forms of funding apart from donor funds? To answer these questions, a number of qualitative methods and techniques were used to collect and analyse data. These included focus group discussions with project beneficiaries, observations of projects, activities and individual project participants, and key informant interviews with different categories of respondents depending on their roles and level of involvement in the implementation of projects as well as their experience in the implementation of donor-aided programmes. These discussions were guided by different interview schedules with respective respondents. Random and snowball sampling methods were used to choose the respondents as well as groups that participated in the study. The research also focused on assessing the survivability of donor-aided NGO projects if the donor funds were discontinued for any reason. It sought to determine the continuity and feasibility of developmental projects and their impact on the socio- economic welfare of the rural poor in the Chris Hani District without donations. This research found evidence indicating that, by and large, NGOs in the Chris Hani District play a crucial role in CDD. Be that as it may, this research established that on average, 98 per cent of NGOs had been economically and socially affected by the donor-funded projects. It was established that, on average, the donor dependency ratio was 74 per cent. It was also seen that most donor-funded projects could only survive for 12 days if the funding was withdrawn. However, this hypothetical withdrawal of funds does not cause much concern because of the security found in the funding types of the NGOs in the Chris Hani District. In practical terms, these community-driven projects are likely to continue for decades ceteris paribus.

Este estudo objetivou identificar e caracterizar algumas parcerias, voltadas ao controle da tuberculose, estabelecidas entre organizações não-governamentais (ONGs) e o Programa de Controle da Tuberculose (TB) no Estado de São Paulo. Buscou, ainda, analisar as ações desenvolvidas, de forma a verificar seu potencial para responder aos determinantes da doença. A abordagem do estudo foi qualitativa e utilizou-se a técnica do snowball para a escolha dos sujeitos. Os dados foram coletados entre Março e Julho de 2010, por meio de entrevistas semi-estruturadas. Participaram do estudo, 6 sujeitos de órgãos governamentais e 13 sujeitos de organizações da sociedade civil. A análise teve como base a determinação social do processo saúde-doença e os conceitos oriundos de Gramsci, de Estado e sociedade civil. O projeto foi aprovado por Comitê de Ética em Pesquisa e os sujeitos foram convidados a participar do estudo mediante ciência do Termo de Consentimento Livre e Esclarecido. Os depoimentos foram analisados segundo técnica de análise de discurso. Os resultados revelaram que as parcerias se iniciaram por estímulo do governo estadual; tiveram como população-alvo, a população geral e alguns grupos específicos (os vulneráveis à doença); em sua maioria, contaram com financiamento do Fundo Global; o monitoramento não foi sistematizado por parte do Estado, mas pelos financiadores dos projetos e; a relação acordada entre ambos foi mais de caráter informal e baseada no compromisso de cada parte. Sobre as ações desenvolvidas, estavam centradas na promoção do controle social, da intersetorialidade, na difusão de informações sobre a doença e, em menor escala, na execução de tarefas que caberiam ao Estado. As ONGs, de maneira geral, não tinham doentes portadores de TB como membros, mas como alvos de suas ações. O papel do Estado, na parceria, foi de estímulo e apoio, enquanto as ONGs se dedicavam à operacionalização das ações. A análise demonstrou que as ações das parcerias foram baseadas no entendimento de que a TB se relaciona com a exclusão social e de que é necessário defender os direitos dos doentes. Ainda, foram capazes de aproximar certos grupos populacionais e o governo. Dessa maneira, as parcerias parecem contribuir para diminuir as vulnerabilidades a que estão expostos alguns doentes com TB, entretanto, não alcançaram revelar a base da exclusão social e as contradições estruturais da sociedade que determinam a TB. / The objective of this study was to identify and characterize some partnerships oriented towards tuberculosis control set between non governmental organizations (NGOs) and the Tuberculosis (TB) Control Program in the State of São Paulo. It also analyzes the actions implemented in order to check their potential responses to the diseases determinants. The study had a qualitative approach and used the snowball technique to select its subjects. Data were collected from March to July 2010 by means of semi-structured interviews. 6 subjects of governmental agencies and 13 subjects of the civil societys organizations participated in the study. The analysis was based on the social determination of the health-disease process and Gramscis concepts of State and civil society. The project was approved by the Committee of Ethics in Research and the subjects were invited to join the study by signing a Free and Informed Consent Form. Their statements were analyzed according to the speech analysis techniques. The results disclosed that the partnerships were stimulated by the federal government; their target-population were the population in general and some specific groups (vulnerable to the disease); most of them were financed by the Global Fund; the State did not systematically monitored the program, the projects financers did; and the relationship agreed among the parties was more informal and based on each partys commitment. About the actions implemented, they were focused on promoting social control, cross-sectional actions, divulging information on the disease and, with less emphasis, on doing tasks that are responsibilities of the State. Generally speaking, the NGOs did not have sick people with TB among its members, but they were the target of their actions. The role of the State in the partnerships was to stimulate and support, while the NGOs implemented the actions. The analysis showed that the partnerships actions were based on the understanding that TB is related to social exclusion and that it is necessary to defend the rights of the sick. They were also able to make the government come closer to certain groups of population. So, partnerships seem to contribute to decrease the vulnerabilities to which TB carriers are exposed; however, they failed to disclose the base of social exclusion and structural contradictions of the society which determine TB.

The aim of this thesis is to examine and analyze different components of the Civil Society in Argentina. Predominantly, two components are at focus: the monitoring process and the vitalization of democracy through the Civil Society. The method conducted to fulfill the purpose of this thesis has been a qualitative approach. Furthermore, primary and secondary sources are used. Primary sources were established through the field study conducted in Argentina, where in-depth interviews with several of NGOs were assembled. Secondary sources were used in order to establish the theoretical approach but also to complement the primary sources in the analytical part. The conclusion in this study is that the component regarding the monitoring process conducted by Civil Society organizations are partially functional, however with several incapacities. Factors explaining the incapacities are due to lack of leverage and resources. The component regarding the vitalization process through the Civil Society has been significant throughout the history of Argentina, and distributing democratic values are essential for the Civil Society. Factors as high degree of polarization amongst citizens and institutions and the extension of governmental authority are however threatening attributes such as moderation, tolerance, compromises, and hence jeopardizing the consolidation phase of democracy.
