Abstract

The Decentralization of the Cultural Program of the Secretary of Culture of the Municipality in Porto Alegre, is the result of a struggle carried out by civil society groups in the ‘80s and ‘90s, which aimed to qualify the participation in municipal management and to change the path of municipal cultural policies. This article sought to rescue the experience of the Program of Cultural Decentralization of Porto Alegre and its contribution to the democratic radicalization and the adoption of new values and social practices, guided by colective ethics.
