Abstract

Apart from the normative and prescriptive defense of intersectorality, the conditions related to the implementation of intersectoral programs are still little explored. This article aims to fill this gap, using an analytical-methodological strategy based on studies on implementation and the methodology of social network analysis (SNA). Based on primary data collected through in-depth interviews and analyzed using SNA, this article compares two programs for homeless people: the Oficina Boracea program, from its beginning in 2002 to 2016, and the program De Bracos Abertos (DBA), from 2013 when it started until its end, in 2016. The results indicate that intersectorality is more than a well-designed management model. It is the product of everyday interactions and coordination strategies built with the participation of different levels of bureaucracy and state and non-state actors, gathered in different implementation arrangements.
