Qualificação de mulheres de baixa renda: uma política feminista?: reflexões a partir do Pronatec Brasil Sem Miséria

Este trabalho trata dos desafios de implementação em nível local do Programa Nacional de Acesso ao Ensino Técnico e Emprego – Brasil Sem Miséria (Pronatec-BSM) a partir de uma perspectiva de gênero. A dissertação buscou problematizar o acesso de mulheres de baixa renda em cursos de qualificação profissional. A qualificação profissional tem sido alvo de políticas públicas desde a criação das primeiras escolas técnicas pelo presidente Getúlio Vargas, na década de 1940, até os dias de hoje. O Pronatec – vigente desde 2011 – configura-se atualmente como a política mais recente nesse campo de atuação. De abrangência nacional e coordenado pelo Ministério da Educação, o Programa, que prevê parcerias com outros ministérios e com outros níveis da federação para que seja executado, oferece diversas modalidades de oferta de cursos, dentre essas modalidades, a Bolsa Formação Trabalhador, a qual prioriza o ingresso do público beneficiário dos programas sociais do governo federal. Compreendendo a relevância do Pronatec no percurso das políticas de qualificação profissional no Brasil, esta dissertação o toma como objeto de análise buscando problematizar os desafios enfrentados em sua implementação e a relação desses desafios com a perspectiva de gênero. Como estudos de caso foram analisadas as experiências de implementação em dois municípios da região metropolitana de São Paulo: Suzano e Osasco. As fontes analíticas para o estudo constituiram-se: a) falas de gestores e gestoras nacionais, b) conteúdo dos materiais produzidos pelo governo federal para regular e orientar a execução do Programa nos municípios; e, finalmente, c) discursos das pessoas envolvidas na implementação local – de servidores(as) municipais, de funcionário(as)s das escolas e das próprias beneficiárias. A pesquisa identificou (1) a necessidade da construção de convergências entre as instituições para que o Programa1 se efetive e, (2) a relevância das imagens de gênero que permeiam as ações de implementadores(as) de todos os níveis e que influenciam, por sua vez, o acesso de mulheres de baixa renda aos cursos de qualificação profissional em que sua presença é minoritária.
