Abstract

Sexual violence in Brazil, mainly against children and adolescents, sometimes occurs stimulated by the unethical behavior of agents, crowded in public service. Given this premise, this research, of qualitative character, had as main objective to analyze the planning of the municipal administration for the confrontation of sexual violence against children and adolescents in a city of the Metropolitan Region of Piracicaba-SP. Using the analysis of ordinary laws, complementary laws, propositions and the Municipal Education Plan, we identified the lack in the application of public money, the lack of technical and scientific as well as the impediment to democratic participation of education professionals for the eradication of this violence. The analysis of the data reveals that institutional violence has become, for this municipality, the main obstacle to the development of public policies focused on combating this complex phenomenon.
