Abstract
Objectives: Analyze the challenges and opportunities in implementing municipal public policies aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), with a focus on social inclusion and reducing inequalities in Brazil. Theoretical Framework: The SDGs represent a global agenda crucial for sustainable development, especially in countries with high social inequality like Brazil. The effectiveness of municipal public policies depends on several factors, including financial resources, technical training, social participation, and intergovernmental coordination. Method: Qualitative bibliographic review of articles published in the last 10 years in Portuguese, seeking the most recent discussions on implementing the SDGs at the municipal level in the Brazilian context. The databases used were Scielo, CAPES Periodicals, and Google Scholar. Results and Discussion: Municipalities face challenges such as scarcity of resources, lack of local indicators, and lack of coordination between government levels. However, good practices such as productive inclusion programs and inter-municipal consortia demonstrate the transformative potential of these policies. Research Implications: Institutional strengthening, technical training, and diversification of funding are essential for the effective implementation of the SDGs. Social participation ensures that policies meet the needs of the population. Originality/Value: The study deepens the debate on the role of municipal public policies in promoting sustainable development in Brazil, considering the context of social inclusion and reducing inequalities, offering insights for public managers, civil society organizations, and funders.
