Programa de Pós-Graduação em Desenvolvimento Sustentável do Trópico Úmido.https://repositorio.ufpa.br/handle/2011/7856The program "Green Municipalities," created by the State Government in 2011, brought to the state of Pará great contributions to the decline in deforestation in the Amazon region. Thus, this research aims to analyze the relationship between the management process and the possibility of municipalities of Abaetetuba, Augusto Corrêa, Bragança or Barcarena achieve certification "Green Municipalities " (Decree 54 of March 29, 2011). This sample was defined based on the cities that were in the "consolidated" made in a state government publication. The methodology used is the systemic analysis of municipal environmental management, with reference to the open system model Bertalanffy (2010) and the concept of autoreferencialidade Niklas Luhmann that will support the analysis of the transformations occurred within the public administration system in municipalities studied. Data collection was done through structured interviews for each manager of PMV, union representatives, federal prosecutors and Imazon. The conclusions of the research it became clear that local governments still need to improve in all aspects of the management process (decision making, communication with the environment, administrative management model and self-referential model), but Barcarena is the city that seems to be more structured to achieve certification of "green cities", in the medium term, than other municipalities, mainly Bragança and Augusto Corrêa who are still far more effective management, especially with regard to communication with the environment and technical and political obstacles. It can be observed that the management in municipalities, especially in the departments of environment, need to be better structured according the ideal model built on the municipalities that have achieved certified "green Municipalities " since the direct relationship is clear that exists between the implementation of targets set by the program and the efficiency or not in municipal public administration.Acesso AbertoGestão ambientalDesenvolvimento sustentávelPolítica públicaPolítica ambientalGestão públicaPrograma Municípios VerdesBarcarena - PABragança - PAAbaetetuba (PA)Augusto Corrêa - PADissertaçãoCNPQ::CIENCIAS HUMANAS::CIENCIA POLITICA::POLITICAS PUBLICAS
