This dissertation investigates the decentralized management of educational school maintenance programs from the National Education Development Fund (FNDE/MEC) based on the collaboration regime established between this authority and the Collaborating Centers for Support for Monitoring and Management of Educational Programs ( CECAMPEs), founded in partnership with Federal Universities, with the function of promoting improvement of the educational programs in question. The research aims to analyze the performance of CECAMPEs in monitoring the decentralized management of FNDE's school maintenance programs. For this purpose, the CECAMPEs referring to the Central-West and Northern Regions of Brazil were comparatively analyzed during the period from 2020 to 2022. We sought to understand how the collaboration proposed by the FNDE developed, and the role of the CECAMPEs in order to support the execution and performance of program management, namely: the Basic Direct Money at School Program (PDDE) and its Integrated Actions, the Caminho da Escola Program and the National School Transport Support Program (PNATE). In this way, the objective was to signal the results produced by this collaboration. For this study, the process of configuring policies and financing of Brazilian education is considered in its advances and obstacles in the targeting and decentralization of resources for basic education. The work is structured from a comparative perspective in education, with a critical-dialectic approach, and included bibliographical research through the survey of titles and literature review, followed by documentary research related to the theme.
