Pregunta 1

Describa brevemente la iniciativa, qué situación o reto aborda y especificar los objetivos. (Máximo 300 palabras)
Transforming public administration in competence, knowledge, innovation, attitude, result and value: this is the role that Enap, a legal entity under public law, assumed since its creation in 1986. It was founded with the promise of transforming the culture and the mental model of each public servant, with the mission of training and developing people that are able to innovate, reach results and serve society. For more than 30 years, has been performing an unique role in innovating the culture of public administration and accelerating the transformation in education and in organizational, and also digital, social or economic management. When the pandemic began, Enap took the lead not only in the rapid response to the health of its servers, adopting measures of social distancing and remote work, but also rethought its activities to reflect and create knowledge on the new pandemic scenario. The quick decisions taken were added to the efficiency in execution and, as a consequence, the whole series of activities previously exposed became possible. Enap has shown itself to be agile, with adaptive capacity, and above all, efficient in its role of creation and propagation of knowledge within the Federal Government. The School continued working, making the deliveries it commonly made while reinventing itself internally and giving quick answers to its public. By adapting its internal functioning, work protocols and team management while creating value in an unprecedented thematic for the public sector and Brazilians, Enap has shown that it is an institution focused on serving society, capable of facing challenges and contributing to the public service of the future. Enap has developed several actions in this thematic, addressing the following axis: 1. Support Actions in the Resolution of Public Problems, 2. Research Actions and Dissemination of Knowledge, 3. Training Actions, and 4. Internal Organization Actions.

Pregunta 5

a. Describir cómo se implementó la iniciativa incluyendo desarrollos y pasos clave, actividades de monitoreo y evaluación y la cronología. (300 palabras)
In the Desafios platform the first step is to identify initial problems and then start the process of understanding and reframing the problem in three steps: understanding the problem, going to the field and redefining the challenge. With the problem reframed, we identified the target audience of the challenge and designed the competition defining, among other things, what we hope to receive from the participants. With the documents produced and resources mobilized, it is time to launch the challenge. We mobilize the innovation ecosystems that we identified when defining the target audience and await the receipt of proposals from participants. From there, it is to screen and evaluate the proposals for innovative solutions according to the criteria defined in the notices, choose the winners and award the prizes.

Pregunta 8

¿Qué recursos específicos (financieros, humanos ú otros) se utilizaron para implementar la iniciativa? (Máximo 100 palabras)

Local authorities in Brazil tried to make both services and data more transparent and accessible and Enap was directly involved in this initiative. The School was also involved in expanding cooperative activities with the local community, including the donation of goods, such as the donation of baskets (sheets, pillowcases, blankets, mattresses) to the local government for needy hospitals.

In the case of the Fast Track Chairs “Public policies to fight the Covid-19 pandemic” there were three months of monthly meetings with evaluators, some of them external to Enap. The Survey “Remote work in the context of covid-19” had national partnerships such as the Department of Management and Personnel Performance of the Ministry of Economy and the partnership of Duke University in the United States. The Survey “Safe Return to In-person Work” also had the partnership of the Secretariat for Management and Personnel Performance of the Ministry of Economy and the partnership of the World Bank.

(Máximo 200 palabras)
In the Fast Track Cátedras, all ten reports were approved as Cadernos Enap and are being published by Enap gradually throughout 2021.

In the survey analyzed by the World Bank, it was detected that 57% of public servants preferred to return to work in person on a staggered basis and that their greatest fear would be transmitting the virus to their families. The results of both surveys made Enap rethink its projects for returning to face-to-face work.

Describa cómo la iniciativa incide en el panorama institucional relevante (por ejemplo: cómo se situaba con respecto a las agencias de gobierno relevantes y cómo han estado funcionando las relaciones institucionales entre ellos). (Máximo 200 palabras)
Enap, as a school of government, has the role of transforming public administration into competence, knowledge, innovation, attitude, results and value. The School is linked to the Ministry of Economy and had the support of this Ministry in most of its actions. The School acted efficiently and quickly in its role of creating and spreading knowledge within the Federal Government, providing its target audience with the opportunity to reflect and create knowledge about the new epidemic scenario. The various initiatives developed by the school in the context of Covid-19 had the support and partnership of other national and international institutions. In the new version of the Desafios Platform, Enap´s intention is that the government agencies create an environment in which they get involved in the open innovation agenda and independently promote their own challenges, stimulating cross-sector innovation.

Pregunta 11

La Agenda 2030 para el Desarrollo Sostenible pone énfasis en la colaboración, compromiso, asociaciones y la inclusión. Describa qué partes interesadas participaron en el diseño, implementación y evaluación; y cómo se llevó a cabo este compromiso. (Máximo 200 palabras)
For the actions of the Desafios platform, Enap had the support of some Secretariats of the Ministry of Economy, such as the Special Secretariat for Productivity and Competitiveness and the Sub-secretariat for the Development of Micro and Small Businesses, Entrepreneurship and Crafts. Usually, this support is given through the transfer of financial resources. For the Surveys, Enap had a partnership with Duke University and the World Bank, in addition to the Secretariat for Management and Personnel Performance of the Ministry of Economy. These partners carry out the partial and final evaluations of the reports delivered by the grantees. In addition, they analyzed the results collected, generating indicators to guide the Federal Government to adopt public policies aimed at minimizing teleworking problems and at the return of federal civil servants to face-to-face work. The events held within the scope of FrontEnd had the participation of nationally and internationally renowned experts. They addressed current and relevant issues, disseminating information that helped to better understand the pandemic moment.

Pregunta 12

Describa las lecciones clave aprendidas y cómo su organización planea mejorar la iniciativa. (Máximo 200 palabras)
Online distance learning will continue. The challenge for Enap (and other schools of government and public administration institutes) is to prepare public servants to respond to the increasingly complex challenges linked to global problems, as is the case with this pandemic. Thus, it is important to include specialists from anywhere in the world in the debates and reflections that the School offers. With the new remote formats, these experts can contribute virtually to the discussion of strategic issues. This is a lesson, a good practice that we must incorporate and encourage making possible to count on the participation of great international experts, exchanging their experiences with public servants who face complex problems and challenges in our countries. From the point of view of access, of the total number of public servants in Brazil, 37.2% are employed in the Southeast Region; 22.4% in the Northeast Region; 19.9% ​​in the Midwest; 11.1% in the South and 9.4% in the North. This shows that the online distance education strategy is important to guarantee the access of public agents to Enap's training and, without a doubt, the distance offers will continue to be explored even after the pandemic.
