Abstract

How do participatory institutions influence the agenda-setting process of the assistance and social inclusion policies for LGBT emigrants by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs? To answer this question, this paper employs content analysis based on official MRE documentation, particularly telegraphic expedients produced between 2003 and 2015. Data and information demonstrate that the Decree 7214/2010 made the Ministry of Foreign Affairs not only more open to LGBT emigrants, but also to the Brazilian communities as a whole. In addition, the article demonstrates the opening of a window of opportunity to interfere in the assembly of the consular public policy agenda caused by the greater engagement of emigrants from the institutionalization of Participatory Institutions (IPs), instituted by normative change. Empirical analyzes also indicate the incorporation of a greater quantity and diversity of actors and themes — introduced in the process by the participation mechanisms of the
Decree, which induced a more collaborative agenda setting procedure in line with the participatory governance model, fundamental for building necessary consensus.
