Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) A Informação pública sob a ótica do cidadão: uma avaliação da transparência ativa nos municípios paraenses à luz do relatório popular(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2024-06-20) MACEDO, Carlos André Araujo de; SOUSA, Allison Manoel de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5391186543607099; HTTPS://ORCID.ORG/0000-0002-5959-6078; DIAS, Lidiane Nazaré da Silva; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4706661632242562In the information age we live in today, transparency in public administration has become more vital than ever. Well-informed and engaged citizens are the foundation of a healthy democracy; access to quality public information is essential for them to perform their roles as overseers and active participants in government decisions that affect their lives. Citizen participation is necessary for the most efficient and effective economic decisions to promote an accurate allocation of resources, fostering trust in markets and thereby contributing to building a more prosperous future. This study explores the issue of active transparency in municipalities in the State of Pará, evaluating the quality of information provided in relation to an ideal model of citizen-oriented reporting - the Popular Report. Through the application of the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) model, along with the perspectives of Communication Theory and Disclosure Theory, we investigated the disclosure of information by municipalities in Pará in terms of active transparency, revealing a diverse scenario. We seek to contribute to the field of Applied Economics by offering data based on empirical evidence to guide the creation of public policies that encourage transparency and access to information. It was observed that real-time disclosure of municipal expenditures plays a key role in transparency. The findings support public managers and legislators by providing them with solid arguments to promote more efficient public communication adapted to the needs of citizens. The inclusion of the Popular Report in the monitoring structure of the Courts of Accounts is suggested as a way to promote greater institutional transparency. In this context, the study not only seeks to contribute to the dialogue on government transparency in Brazil, but also makes resources available to promote a municipal administration that is more accessible to citizens and participatory, in which the individual has an active role.
