| Summary: | The purpose of this study was to investigate the extent to which NGOs are helping to establish a system of democratic governance, particularly in actions developed by two NGOs located in Porto Alegre-RS. To this end, the theoretical framework, it was necessary to discuss, first, the concept of democracy - in Habermasian conception – and of governance - in the vision of Kazancigil. Thus, the research was developed with the various actors who are part of everyday NGOs: community members, staff and board. The part of the results and discussion was divided into three steps. The first, a presentation of NGOs and the last two linked to two assumptions related to democratic governance: local democracy and participation in decision instances. Thus, it was determinated the possibilities and difficulties in broad statement of democratic governance in the promotion of public transparency and social inclusion of the actions of NGOs. |
