The objective of this study was to analyze in the context of social management, the role of local NGOs involved in the process of local development in the Blumenau (SC) region. The method adopted was qualitative research and exploratory technique. The population was composed of nine NGOs in the region. To collect data we used a scripton topics applied to managers of these organizations. The results showed that six NGOs working in the area of health, two in the promotion of education and in protecting the environment. Only one NGO interviewed, whose intentions are directly related to environmental issues, is in its projects of local development concerns. The other (eight) attribute their actions as indirect contribution to the development process. Respondents perceive the social management as the responsibility of the Municipal, demonstrating that there is still no collective movement and organized NGOs to take up this role to the local development process. There was no joint participation of NGOs in specific discussions on the development site. It is concluded that NGOs fulfill their role of existence and struggle for their cause, and this contributes to the development, however this effort is not adequately represented in the political space in which society can participate.
