Resumo: | The ProBUC - monitoring program of biodiversity and the sustainable use of natural resources in protected areas of the Amazonas state - is an innovation in the community monitoring process within the Amazon. It is, in large measure, a consequence of the evaluation process and management of protected areas worldwide. Its purpose is to support the management of these protected areas through information obtained by local communities monitoring. In this work, we exposed the methodological details of the operating system of the program and its objectives as the official description made by the government of the Amazonas and the way it was implemented three protected areas. First, the aspects that precede and inspire the creation of ProBUC are presented, starting from the theoretical framework that discusses the conventional monitoring until the appearance of the proposed community monitoring in tropical countries, emphasizing the limitations of both modalities. Secondly, the limitations and potentials of this Amazon program are exposed within a critical evaluation of its functioning. This analysis stems from readings of international authors who discuss the issue of community monitoring direct observations made during field works and interviews with inhabitants of the conservation units within the program in question was established. Our analysis is also reinforced by taking part in in technical review meeting held by the ProBUC´s crew in 2013. It was noted that the viability of this program depends on overcoming key challenges such as financial dependence on international institution, the absence of a permanent technical staff, the huge gap in the treatment of data collected, the limited participation of the community in the daily development of the program-, among others. These limitations mean that the work done by local inhabitants is not located within a government strategy for local development. Furthermore, adaptive and participatory aspects of the program are potentials that need to be valued for its improvement. We conclude that it is very urgent that the state government take ownership of this program and equipped it with the necessary means in order to see its appropriation by the local communities and to encourage the proliferation of other similar regional initiatives-. The construction of ProBUC in this way would be of great value to the consolidation of alternative community monitoring in the complex Amazonian context. |

Ele é, em boa medida, reflexo do processo de avaliação e gestão de áreas protegidas mundiais. Sua finalidade é a de subsidiar a gestão destas unidades de conservação por meio de informações obtidas pelo monitoramento exercido pelas próprias comunidades locais. Neste trabalho, são expostos os detalhes metodológicos de funcionamento e os objetivos do programa amazonense conforme a descrição oficial e os locais de implantação, que se referem às três unidades de conservação em que está implementado. Apresentam-se os aspectos que antecedem e inspiram a criação do ProBUC, partindo-se do referencial teórico que discute do monitoramento convencional até o surgimento da proposta do monitoramento comunitário em países tropicais, enfatizando-se as limitações de ambas as modalidades. Num segundo momento, as limitações e potencialidades deste programa amazonense são expostas dentro de uma avaliação crítica de seu funcionamento. Esta análise decorre de leituras de autores internacionais que discutem a problemática do monitoramento comunitário, de observações diretas feitas em trabalho de campo e de entrevistas com comunitários das unidades de conservação em que o programa em questão está estabelecido. Para esta fundamentação também contribuiu a participação em reunião técnica de avaliação do ProBUC realizada por sua equipe técnica no ano de 2013. Constata-se que a viabilidade deste programa depende da superação de importantes desafios como a dependência financeira de instituição internacional, a ausência de uma equipe técnica permanente, a enorme lacuna existente no tratamento de dados coletados, a participação restrita dos comunitários no desenvolvimento diário do programa, dentre outros. Estas limitações fazem com que o trabalho realizado pelos moradores locais não esteja situado dentro de uma estratégia governamental de desenvolvimento local. Ademais, os aspectos adaptativo e participativo do programa são potenciais que precisam ser valorizados para seu aperfeiçoamento. Conclui-se que se faz urgente que o governo estadual se aproprie deste programa e o dote das condições necessárias para que possa ser realmente assumido pelas comunidades e incentive a proliferação de outras iniciativas regionais semelhantes. A construção do ProBUC, neste sentido, seria de grande valia para a consolidação de alternativas de monitoramento comunitário no complexo contexto amazônico.Universidade Federal de Santa Maria2014-09-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPesquisa qualitativa.
