O programa EXPEDIÇÃO IFSULDEMINAS foi criado em 2016 e é executado anualmente com o objetivo de estimular o desenvolvimento de diferentes áreas em comunidades sul-mineiras por intermédio da extensão universitária. Dentre os conjuntos temáticos que abrangem os objetivos do programa, pode-se citar a valorização da cultura do cidadão local, o cooperativismo e a gestão e educação ambiental em nível regional. Logo, relatamos nesse artigo a experiência dos autores em dois projetos contemplados pelo programa, sendo desenvolvidos nas cidades sul-mineiras de Luminárias em 2016 e Cássia em 2017. Para tanto, foram analisadas as atividades desenvolvidas com caráter de conservação e conscientização ambiental, que possuíam o intuito de atrelar o meio ambiente com as necessidades sociais de forma menos prejudiciais à natureza. As atividades possuíam cunho teórico-prático, como a construção de fossa séptica em comunidade rural, a implantação de horta medicinal em uma creche municipal e um mutirão de recolhimento de resíduos sólidos nas residências. Foram realizadas, também, aulas públicas e oficinas com temas relacionados ao meio ambiente, recursos hídricos no ecoturismo, qualidade hídrica, recursos sustentáveis na agricultura e importância das matas ciliares. Aproximadamente 900 pessoas foram beneficiadas, como alunos, professores e gestores de escolas públicas, profissionais do Programa Saúde da Família e pequenos agricultores do município. O trabalho evidenciou que a extensão universitária em nível local pode ser uma alternativa viável à disseminação de informações relacionadas à temática ambiental, além de permitir maior contato entre universidade e comunidade e contribuir para a formação cidadã dos extensionistas.

For such end, it was analyzed the performed activities from an approach of environmental awareness and its conservation, that had the intention to unite the environment with the social necessities in a way less harmful to nature. The activities had the theoretical-practical essence, like the construction of septic tank in a rural community, the implementation of a medicinal garden in a municipal nursery and a task force to collect solid wastes from residences. It was operated also public classes and workshops on topics related to the environment, hydric resources at ecotourism, water quality and sustainable resources in agriculture and the importance of riparian zones. About 900 people were benefited, as well as students, teachers, professionals from the “Programa Saúde da Família (Family Health Program)” and small farmers. The work showed that university extension at a local level can be a viable alternative to the dissemination of information related to the environmental approach, besides allowing a greater contact between university and community and to contribute to the citizenship of the extensionist students.

The article examines the formation of the statehood of modern Turkmenistan through the prism of historical changes that have occurred in the post-Soviet countries. It is noted that after 1991 all former republics of the USSR built new independent states on a fundamentally different basis – interaction between government and society. The authors emphasize that the establishment of trust between the state as an institution and citizens is possible under certain conditions, among which a special place is occupied by a clear organization of civil service and the professionalism of civil servants. The measures that have already been implemented and are being taken by the leadership of Turkmenistan at the present time to solve these problems are considered. It is noted that Turkmenistan acts within the framework and in accordance with the key world-class standards regarding the requirements for the organization of civil service. The measures taken in the country to combat corruption are analyzed.

Abstract Background The state of São Paulo recorded a significant reduction in infant mortality, but the desired reduction in maternal mortality was not achieved. Knowledge of the factors with impact on these indicators would be of help in formulating public policies. The aims of this study were to evaluate the relations between socioeconomic and demographic factors, health care model and both infant mortality and maternal mortality in the state of São Paulo, Brazil. Methods In this ecological study, data from national official open sources were used. Analyzed were 645 municipalities in the state of São Paulo, Brazil. For each municipality, the infant mortality and maternal mortality rates were calculated for every 1000 live births, 2013. The association between these rates, socioeconomic variables, demographic models and the primary care organization model in the municipality were verified. We used the zero-inflated negative binomial model. Gross analysis was performed and then multiple regression models were estimated. For associations, we adopted “p” at 5%. Results The increase in the HDI of the city and proportion of Family Health Care Strategy implemented were significantly associated with the reduction in both infant mortality (neonatal + post-neonatal) and maternal mortality rates. In turn, the increase in birth and caesarean delivery rates were associated with the increase in infant and maternal mortality rates. Conclusions It was concluded that the Family Health Care Strategy model that contributed to the reduction in infant (neonatal + post-neonatal) and maternal mortality rates, and so did actors such as HDI and cesarean section. Thus, public health managers should prefer this model. Key messages Implementation of public policies with specific focus on attenuating these factors and making it possible to optimize resources, and not interrupting the FHS. Knowledge of the factors with impact on these indicators would be of help in formulating public policies.

This article first presents a brief survey of the role and functions filled by the personal aide (chef de cabinet) of a minister in Quebec. The analysis continues, in a comparative perspective, by tracing a sociological and professional portrait of the Liberal“chefs de cabinet” in April 1976 and their successors in the pequiste government in July 1977.We then test the hypothesis that the cleavage between the government and the dominant economic forces has increased since November 15, 1976 as a result of the ideology articulated by the“chefs de cabinet” regarding the social and economic aims of the state. This hypothesis was confirmed.The hypothesis that the pequiste“chefs de cabinet” exercise a more pronounced influence on the decision-making process is also confirmed. Nevertheless, one cannot argue that the pequiste“chefs de cabinet” usurped the power of the legislators; their influence is more political than technocratic. The growing influence of the pequiste“chefs de cabinet” neverthelsss helps to accentuate the tensions and conflicts between the higher civil service and the ministerial aides.
