Tarcísio de Freitas, the Republican candidate seeking reelection, is incorporating technical expertise from the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) and the UN Development Programme (UNDP) into his government program.
State Secretary of Environment, Infrastructure, and Logistics, Natalia Resende, who is coordinating the plan for Freitas's potential new term, has been meeting with these specialists. Their collaboration extends to the Superação SP program, a key initiative Freitas championed to combat poverty.
Resende has also engaged with experts from Comunitas, who provided recommendations primarily in health and public security. In the realm of innovation, the campaign consulted Ronaldo Lemos, a lawyer and technology specialist focusing on artificial intelligence and data integration to modernize public management and services.
"The plan is the result of dialogue with civil society entities, contributions and demands from citizens in public hearings for budgetary laws, the management's own experience, and specialists," Resende stated, highlighting the inclusive development process.
