O Fundo Nacional de Desenvolvimento da Educação (FNDE) é uma autarquia federal responsável pela execução das políticas educacionais do Ministério da Educação (MEC). O FNDE tem por finalidade prestar assistência técnica e financeira e executar ações que contribuam para a melhoria da educação básica pública, com vistas à universalização do atendimento escolar e à melhoria da qualidade do ensino, bem como compartilhar o conhecimento que subsidia a execução das ações, projetos e programas. Dentre esses programas, o FNDE operacionaliza o Plano de Ações Articuladas (PAR), uma estratégia de assistência técnica e financeira iniciada pelo Plano de Metas Compromisso Todos pela Educação, instituído pelo Decreto nº 6.094, de 24 de abril de 2007, fundamentada no Plano de Desenvolvimento da Educação (PDE), que consiste em oferecer aos entes federados um instrumento de diagnóstico e planejamento de política educacional, concebido para estruturar e gerenciar metas definidas de forma estratégica, contribuindo para a construção de um sistema nacional de ensino.

Nesse contexto, o PAR apresenta indicadores definidos a partir do diagnóstico e planejamento local, para quatro dimensões:

Gestão educacional;

Formação de professores, dos profissionais de serviço e apoio escolar;

Práticas pedagógicas e de avaliação, e

Infraestrutura física e recursos pedagógicos.

Na dimensão 4, destacam-se as iniciativas de construção de obras, que se classificam em etapas, modalidades e desdobramentos. Para as etapas do Ensino Fundamental e Médio, temos as modalidades de Educação Escolar Indígena (com desdobramentos urbano e rural) e Educação Escolar Quilombola (também com desdobramentos urbano e rural).

Verifica-se que inúmeras obras indígenas e quilombolas encontram-se paralisadas ou inacabadas. Nesse sentido, o FNDE identificou os seguintes gargalos prioritários que precisam ser superados para reverter a trajetória dessas obras e fornecer a infraestrutura necessária para atingir as metas do PPA e PNE e oferecer uma educação de qualidade para comunidades indígenas e quilombolas e para a população em geral:

Fortalecer a gestão de processos do PAR, que tem levado à celebração de ajustes com elevado risco de resultar em obras paralisadas ou inacabadas;

Fortalecer a capacidade técnica e operacional das equipes de Estados e Municípios para gerenciar as obras;

Fortalecer a capacidade operacional do FNDE para acompanhar e apoiar as equipes técnicas de Estados e Municípios.

Neste contexto, o FNDE solicitou assistência técnica do UNOPS para aprimorar a gestão do Plano de Ações Articuladas (PAR), o fortalecimento da assistência técnica fornecida aos entes federados e a finalização de obras inacabadas para comunidades indígenas e quilombolas. A situação esperada ao término do projeto é:

Diagnóstico dos processos do PAR, mecanismo de avaliação de riscos e roteiro estratégico para negociação, permitindo a negociação célere e com maior qualidade de novos convênios com entes federados.

Modelo aprimorado de assistência técnica e convênios que estavam sob risco atendidos, permitindo melhor assistência aos entes federados e redução no número de novas obras paralisadas.

120 escolas concluídas para comunidades indígenas e quilombolas, com a internalização pelo FNDE de metodologia e instrumentos necessários para o planejamento, o monitoramento, a execução e a avaliação ex post de obras futuras.

O Resultado 2 deste acordo de cooperação se refere à capacidade de gestão de obras fortalecida, incluindo:

2.1 Diagnóstico Social e de infraestrutura escolar indígena e quilombola.

2.2 Revisão e adaptação de projetos de infraestrutura para finalização de obras.

2.3 Execução de obras.

The National Fund for Educational Development (FNDE) is a federal autarchy responsible for executing the educational policies of the Ministry of Education (MEC). The purpose of FNDE is to provide technical and financial assistance and execute actions that contribute to the improvement of public basic education, with a view to universalizing school attendance and improving the quality of teaching, as well as sharing the knowledge that supports the execution of actions, projects, and programs. Among these programs, FNDE operationalizes the Plano de Ações Articuladas (PAR - Articulated Actions Plan), a technical and financial assistance strategy initiated by the Plan of Goals "Compromisso Todos pela Educação" (Commitment to Education for All), established by Decree No. 6,094, of April 24, 2007, based on the Educational Development Plan (PDE), which consists of offering federated entities an instrument for diagnosing and planning educational policy, conceived to structure and manage strategically defined goals, contributing to the construction of a national teaching system. In this context, PAR presents indicators defined based on local diagnosis and planning for four dimensions:

Educational management;

Training of teachers, service professionals, and school support staff;

Pedagogical and evaluation practices, and

Physical infrastructure and pedagogical resources.

In dimension 4, construction initiatives stand out, classified into stages, modalities, and developments. For the stages of Elementary and Secondary Education, we have the modalities of Indigenous School Education (with urban and rural developments) and Quilombola School Education (also with urban and rural developments).

It is noted that numerous Indigenous and Quilombola construction works are paralyzed or unfinished. In this sense, FNDE identified the following priority bottlenecks that need to be overcome to reverse the trajectory of these works and provide the necessary infrastructure to achieve the PPA and PNE goals and offer quality education for Indigenous and Quilombola communities and the general population:

Strengthen the management of PAR processes, which has led to the signing of agreements with a high risk of resulting in paralyzed or unfinished works;

Strengthen the technical and operational capacity of State and Municipal teams to manage the works;

Strengthen FNDE's operational capacity to monitor and support the technical teams of States and Municipalities.

In this context, FNDE requested technical assistance from UNOPS to improve the management of the Articulated Actions Plan (PAR), the strengthening of technical assistance provided to federated entities, and the finalization of unfinished works for Indigenous and Quilombola communities. The expected situation at the end of the project is:

Diagnosis of PAR processes, risk assessment mechanism, and strategic negotiation roadmap, allowing for quick and higher-quality negotiation of new agreements with federated entities.

Improved model of technical assistance and agreements that were at risk addressed, allowing for better assistance to federated entities and a reduction in the number of new paralyzed works.

120 schools completed for Indigenous and Quilombola communities, with the internalization by FNDE of the necessary methodology and instruments for the planning, monitoring, execution, and ex-post evaluation of future works.

Result 2 of this cooperation agreement refers to strengthened works management capacity, including:

2.1 Social and infrastructure diagnosis of Indigenous and Quilombola schools.

2.2 Review and adaptation of infrastructure projects for work finalization.

2.3 Execution of works.
