Expected Results: The Study consists on the interim assessment of the Initiative “Bairros Críticos”, between 2006 and 2009, in the three neighbourhoods covered by the program. This assessment has the general goal of performing the analysis of the management and decision-making models, considering the participation of the agents and organizations involved in the initiative. In this sense, the assessment is based on the evaluation of the different modes and levels of integration of the initiative's principles and goals in the implementation processes. Through a cross-disciplinary perspective, taking into consideration the three territories, the assessment aims at presenting the initiative’s interim results, attempting to promote a reflective feature which allows measuring the effects and results of the initiative and the execution projects.
