A agenda ambiental na administração pública e a responsabilidade socioambiental na gestão da Universidade Federal do Amapá

Abstract

The present work addresses the theme of Environmental Public Management and aims to verify whether the Administration of the Federal University of Amapá (UNIFAP) in relation to the compliance with the principles of Environmental Management defined in the Environmental Agenda in Public Administration (A3P), which includes the environmental theme in management, with the purpose of adopting and implementing actions in the area of socio environmental responsibility in its internal and external activities. This is a case study, with a qualitative approach. Bibliographic and documentary research was carried out with the application of questionnaire and interviews with key actors of the University. To achieve the objective of the research, descriptive research was carried out through content analysis. The study presents information about the public environmental management process in force at UNIFAP and sought to analyze whether or not it was adequate to the principles and criteria of A3P. The results obtained reveal that UNIFAP positively meets the criteria and guidelines of the A3P in thematic axes I and II, with effective maintenance actions, acquisition of equipment and investments in sustainable sources. In addition to the implementation of practices such as donation and proper separation of the waste generated. However, the negative points identified were the lack of control of electricity and water consumption by IFES or an educational campaign to raise awareness about saving electricity and water and the lack of mapping of water and energy consumption in UNIFAP buildings, which makes it difficult to implement specific actions to effectively reduce water consumption in each location.
