Abstract

This work aims to map and analyze the measures adopted by the Brazilian internal control agencies at the state and federal levels, based on a classification of innovation in the public sector adopted by the OECD, having as reference the relationship of accountability with the macro-functions of government internal audit, ombudsman, correction, prevention and fight against corruption. The initiatives qualified as innovative were raised by consulting the official websites of the agencies and entities defined in the sample, complemented with international examples. The accountability initiatives linked to the macro-functions of the ombudsman and the prevention of corruption, were characterized by innovation aimed at improving existing structures or practices, and also by the predominance of the adaptive domain of innovation, while Brazilian horizontal accountability initiatives, referring to macrofunctions government internal audit, correction and fight against corruption, were anticipatory and mission oriented.
