Abstract

This study aimed to verify the level of stakeholder engagement in Brazilian water governance. A content analysis was carried out of all 73 minutes and full reports of the meetings of the National Council of Water Resources (CNRH) available, referring to the period between 1998, year of creation of the body, and 2021. data, the significant participation of stakeholder segments in national water governance was observed, not only through non-deliberative manifestations, but also through the exercise of decision-making power. It was concluded that all stakeholder segments are at level 3 of the engagement scale, which corresponds to empowerment. Within this level, which is subdivided into three, the stakeholder segments concentrated on the two highest levels of engagement, which are delegated power and control by the stakeholder. By verifying the levels of stakeholder engagement, this theoretical construct is operationalized, transforming it into concrete knowledge, capable of being applied, measured and consolidated. This contributed to filling the gap in knowledge about stakeholder engagement, demonstrating the adequacy of the construct to the reality of the National Water Resources Policy. The engagement matrix used can serve as a model for state water resources policies and foreign public policies.
