| dc.description.abstract | In the current debate on creating value for organizations and society to consider the outlook of sustainability in terms of good business governance, three aspects have been constantly brought up: the results from the action of different actors measured in economic, social, environmental and cultural perspectives; the influence of the action of these actors in promoting human rights; and the quality of their contribution, individual and collectively, for sustainable development. This case study takes into consideration the aforementioned aspects as guidelines in a preliminary study to the contribution of a forest venture program to rural sustainable development. The study was based on data of 33 representatives of 13 interest groups involved in the program in eight selected municipalities in a universe of 23 in which the program has been implemented. Furthermore, secondary sources were used to obtain an even deeper understanding of the perspectives of the actors. A case study methodology was used in accordance with Yin (Estudo de caso. 3 ed. 2005, p.212), and the results were analyzed based on Bauer and Gaskell (Pesquisa qualitativa com texto, imagem e som: un manual practice. 2 ed. 2002, p516.) | |
