O CONSÓRCIO PÚBLICO PARA DESENVOLVIMENTO DO ALTO PARAOPEBA (CODAP/MG) E OS REFLEXOS DA GESTÃO PÚBLICA INTEGRADA THE CONSÓRCIO PÚBLICO PARA DESENVOLVIMENTO DO ALTO PARAOPEBA (CODAP/MG) AND REFLECTIONS OF INTEGRATED PUBLIC MANAGEMENT

The focus of this paper was to analyze the effects of the formation of public consortiums, as seen by the local government, basing on the case study of the Consorcio Publico para Desenvolvimento do Alto Paraopeba - CODAP. The theory includes a discussion about public institutions and consortia, reinforcing the importance that the institutional dimension, while in the range of action of the State, has to the development of the regions. The methodology used was the exploratory research. The results exposed changes in indicators over time and a positive relationship between the installation of CODAP and advances in integrated public management, perceiving that the once excluded questions from the municipal political agenda have entered in the regional development programs axis, including the formation of an conjunct planning that has been producing positive collective results.
