Tribunal de Contas de São Paulo lançará Índice de Efetividade da Gestão Municipal

O Tribunal de Contas do Estado de São Paulo (TCESP) apresentará, no dia 5 de outubro, às 10h, no Centro de Convenções Rebouças (CCR), em São Paulo, os resultados do Índice de Efetividade da Gestão Municipal (IEGM/TCESP) – Ano Base: 2014. 


Este índice tem como objetivo avaliar a efetividade das políticas e atividades públicas desenvolvidas pelos gestores dos entes municipais. Ao final do evento, cada gestor receberá um exemplar do 1º Anuário IEGM-TCESP, que contém as análises consolidadas dos resultados do índice acompanhadas do Relatório de Desempenho Municipal específico da sua cidade. 

Segundo explicou a Presidente do TCE, Cristiana de Castro Moraes, o lançamento do anuário – que reunirá Prefeitos, Vereadores, Secretários Municipais e autoridades do setor público – é resultado do trabalho iniciado no exercício da Presidência de 2014, decorrente do projeto IEGM, coordenado pelo Conselheiro Sidney Estanislau Beraldo, que preside as atividades do Comitê de Gestão Estratégica (GET). Os dados que serão apresentados são fruto de uma pesquisa realizada com os 644 municípios (com exceção da capital) e que foi composta por 154 quesitos divididos em 7 (sete) áreas temáticas (educação, saúde, planejamento, gestão fiscal, proteção ao meio ambiente, cidadãos e governança da tecnologia da informação). 

Coletados por meio do Sistema de Auditoria Eletrônica (Audesp), os dados obtidos no IEGM/TCESP serão colocados a disposição da sociedade em  um Site Infográfico,  bem como em um aplicativo para celulares. O TCE também premiará os vencedores do 1º Hackathon, Concurso Cultural de Programação que acontecerá no dia 26 de setembro, com programadores e profissionais da área de informática que desenvolverão o aplicativo ‘mobile’ do IEGM para plataforma Android. O mesmo permitirá que o usuário acesse os dados do IEGM, avalie resultados, enviando comentários e fotos, incentivando, de forma interativa, a transparência e a participação da sociedade. –

OGP Webinar:
“Can citizen empowerment improve people’s lives?  Evidence from the Transparency for Development program”
Tuesday, October 6th, 2015
10:00 a.m. – 11:00 a.m. EST 

Language: English

REGISTER for this webinar: HERE

Speakers: 

Nathaniel Heller
Managing Director – Results for Development Institute (R4D) 
Courtney Tolmie
Senior Program Director – Results for Development Institute (R4D)
Sponsored by the OGP Support Unit and the World Bank
Description:
Much has been made of the potential of bottom-up accountability as a pathway to improve governance and development outcomes; however there is less consensus regarding what “bottom-up accountability” means, how to achieve it, and how effective it is in improving health, education, and other outcomes that affect people’s livelihoods.
 
The Transparency for Development program – led by Results for Development Institute and the Harvard Kennedy School – is a mixed-method multi-country design and evaluation program that is seeking to answer these questions.  Working with civil society organizations in Tanzania and Indonesia, the program has designed a mechanism for engaging with and empowering citizens to hold service providers and local governments accountable for providing better health services, specifically in maternal and neonatal health.  Using quantitative and qualitative evaluation approaches, including both ethnography and randomized control trials, the program is currently measuring the success and bottlenecks of achieving bottom-up accountability from the community level that translates to healthier mothers and babies.
 
This webinar will highlight the components of the Transparency for Development program, including early findings from the pilot in Tanzania and Indonesia.  The speakers will further discuss the implications of this research on assessing the effectiveness of bottom-up accountability across other sectors, and for policymakers at the sub-national and national levels seeking to leverage open government and transparency efforts towards improved delivery of public sector services.
Speakers:
Nathaniel Heller is Managing Director at the Results for Development Institute (R4D), which he joined in 2014, and leads R4D’s Governance Program. At R4D, Nathaniel works to harness citizen-centric transparency and accountability efforts as drivers of development outcomes. Prior to joining R4D, Nathaniel co-founded and led Global Integrity, a non-profit organization that promotes government transparency and accountability worldwide through high-quality research, cutting-edge technology, and innovative policy insights. During his time as Executive Director of Global Integrity, Nathaniel led the organization from its founding in 2005 through a period of intensive growth that saw Global Integrity established as a global leader on anti-corruption and governance issues. Nathaniel holds a Bachelor’s degree in International Relations and Spanish Literature from the University of Delaware and a Master’s degree from Georgetown University’s School of Foreign Service. He currently serves as a civil society steering committee member of the Open Government Partnership, advisory board member of Civio, and on the board of The engine room. 
Courtney Tolmie is a Senior Program Director at the Results for Development Institute (R4D).  She is a principal investigator on the Transparency for Development (T4D) program for R4D, a mixed-method multi-country implementation and evaluation program seeking to answer whether community-led transparency and accountability efforts can improve health outcomes. Courtney joined R4D in 2007 to manage the Transparency and Accountability Program. She is co-author of Lives in the Balance: Improving Accountability for Public Spending in Developing Nations (Brookings Press), From the Ground Up (Brookings Press), and Using PETS to Monitor Projects and Small-Scale Programs (World Bank).  Courtney graduated from Bowdoin College (B.A. Economics) and holds a Masters of Arts in Economics from the University of Virginia.

ISTR is pleased to announce the third ISTR PhD Seminar preceding the 12th International Conference in Stockholm, Sweden in June 2016. The ISTR PhD Seminar is a recurring event that takes place bi-annually in conjunction with the international conference.
The ISTR PhD Seminar is open to all doctoral students in the field of third sector and civil society research, across the different regions in the world, and at all stages of their doctoral research.

More specifically, the seminar will consist of both plenary sessions with presentations by leading scholars in the field, and parallel group sessions in which the participants have the opportunity to present and discuss their doctoral research with peers, junior and senior faculty. Participants will be grouped thematically, but the group composition will be heterogeneous in terms of concrete research topics, disciplinary background, research stage, method, and regional affiliation.
The seminar is limited to a group of (up to) 50 doctoral students. Applicants must be members of ISTR and register and attend the conference. The ISTR PhD Seminar will start with an afternoon session followed by an informal dinner on Sunday afternoon, June 26, 2016.  Plenary and group sessions will take place on Monday, June 27 and Tuesday, June 28 (in the morning). Participants are expected to arrive on Sunday. ISTR will cover two nights of accommodation (Sunday June 26 and Monday June 27) as well as coffee breaks and meals during the Seminar.
