The methodological strategy was the qualitative exploratory research. Secondary data were obtained from documents and official sources, especially from the Pluriannual Plans, the Transparency Portal and the Agreements Portal. It was found that the concentration of such transfers was precisely on municipalities with high and medium GDP per capita. Moreover, low efficacy was observed in the use of federal resources, which can be attributed to a limited control of the voluntary transfers and of information coordination by the implementing bodies.</p><p></p> 2020-04-22 02:45:22 voluntary transfers intergovernmental coordination municipal solid waste (MSW curbside recycling results of public policies
