Abstract

The law 13.431/2017 and decree 9.603/2018 have established the Rights Assurance System for children and adolescents who are victims or witnesses of abuse have fostered disputes to interpret the purpose and way of carrying out Structured Interview. These laws have defined that the procedure to be adopted is the interview, in addition to presuppose the intersectoral and interdisciplinary work link to take care of children and adolescents, who are victims of sexual abuse. Based on the challenges created by these laws, this thesis discussed about the importance of an intersectoral network, and what the social service contribution is in it to establish a Structured Interview procedure to take care for those victims. Thus, the research was based on following question: has the process of constructing the reference for the Structured Interview in REDE and RIPS been carried out according to the intersectoral premises in REDE, set out in PNEVSCAs and in the aforementioned laws? The time series study was from 2017 to 2021. So, this research aimed at identifying the contributions of intersectionality and network references for strategies adopted within the scope of the Attention and Social Protection Network – REDE - Cascavel and the Intersectoral Social Protection Network – RIPS - Toledo to organize the Structured Interview to protect children and adolescents who were sexually abused. These public policy networks were the research study place. The content of this thesis is a consequence of an investigation carried out on bibliographic, documentary and field research, in which the data analysis methodology was qualitative. The bibliographic research aimed to deepen the theoretical studies on intersectoriality and networking themes. The documentary research aimed at collecting data in documents organized by REDE and RIPS. The field research aimed at using the semi-structured interview as a technique for data collection with the subjects, foreseen in the sample, and with those who accepted to take part in the investigation process preserved by answering the questions in the script. Along the research, the subjects’ integrity and identity were saved, respecting the principles of the Social Assistants’ Code of Ethics and standardizations of the Research Ethics Committee (REC) of Unioeste. It was possible to identify that the agreements were the main strategies to establish protocols and flows to carry out the Structured Interview according to the obtained results. However, regarding the analyzed networks, one of them did not adopt and the other adopted intersectoriality and interdisciplinarity as a premise of its strategy for the effectiveness of such Structured Interview. It was observed that intersectoriality and network among public policies do not happen naturally and easily. Since they are a result of a political action that has several difficulties, including listening to children and adolescents who are under sexual abuse situation.
