Políticas públicas de enfrentamento a violência doméstica no estado de São Paulo: análise de implementação em municípios paulistas

Abstract

The research presents a context on the relationship between gender and urban studies, especially in relation to public policies aimed at combating violence against women. The fight for women's rights is advancing mainly at the legislative level, but the effective implementation of public policies is essential to ensure the realization of rights recognized by law. As an objective, the research proposed to analyze advances and limitations of 25 (twenty-five) São Paulo Municipalities in the construction and implementation of public policies for women and contribute to the exchange of experiences between public entities and managers. The approach was based on the concept of gender and public policies, divided into structured axes based on guidelines established by the Maria da Penha Law. The method used was qualitative and data was collected through City Hall websites, the Access to Information Law and consultation of other databases. The selection of Municipalities was based on the largest number of inhabitants in the State of São Paulo. The data reveals that the majority of Municipalities have advanced in the implementation of public policies, however, in some aspects they require better development. In the end, it was possible to obtain a perspective on how Municipalities have developed to combat violence against women in their territories
