Abstract
The Agenda 21 is an instrument in which public policies for development could be
based on, as it results from the articulation of social agents around their needs and
desires. However, there are many limits to its applicability. The Local Agenda 21 of
Itaparica, built in 2006 and 2007 with the participation of third section organizations,
local community and public authorities, follow the steps of awareness, elaboration of
community social environmental diagnosis, thematic meetings and Forum
constitution. The objective of this work is to analyze the applicability of Local Agenda
21 of Itaparica/BA, its limits and possibilities in the involved social agents vision. To
this end, the concepts of sustainable development and participative governance were
studied, and the members of public authorities of 2005-2008 and 2009-2012
administrations, nongovernmental organizations, leaders and community members
were interviewed. As a result, we could notice the discontinuity of actions and the
non incorporation of directives and proposes as the elaboration of public policies to
local development, although the importance of the document in the concept of
involved social agents. Based on it, we could affirm that recuperate Local Agenda 21
of Itaparica/BA, such as stimulate participative governance, would contribute to local
sustainable development.
