Análise do fundo estadual de combate e erradicação da pobreza (FECOEP) em Alagoas (2010-2020)

Abstract

The creation of the State Fund for the Fight and Eradication of Poverty (FECOEP) in Brazil, established by Federal Constitutional Amendment No. 31, of December 14, 2000, was a measure adopted so that the states of the federation could promote actions to support the low-income population, aiming to overcome poverty. The main definitions of poverty demonstrate the importance of implementing public policies so that individuals can meet their basic needs. In this vision, in 2004, the state of Alagoas implemented FECOEP with the purpose of combating and eradicating poverty. The objective of the research is to analyze the programs implemented by FECOEP in Alagoas during the period from 2010 to 2020. The methodology will be based on a bibliographic review, combined with documentary analysis with data collection from the implemented projects. A detailed study of the actions developed will be carried out, in addition to the evaluation of the results of the programs that contributed to the reducion of poverty in the state, addressing the social and economic context of the country and highlighting inequality in Alagoas. The result of the survey showed that most of the investments are directed to areas such as food security, family farming and support for social assistance policies.
