• Abstract:

  The Basic Education Maintenance and Development Fund (FUNDEB) is a public policy that aims to finance basic education throughout Brazil, guaranteeing resources for states and municipalities. Although it benefits elementary education and contributes to reducing regional disparities, it faces challenges such as a lack of sufficient resources to meet all needs, especially in the most disadvantaged areas. In addition, there are concerns about the efficient use of resources, affecting the quality of education. Thus, it is essential to improve the financing model, increase the participation of the federal government, and ensure transparent and efficient management of resources, seeking alternatives to increase their availability and adequately meet educational demands. In this study, the objective is to analyze the impacts of the New Fundeb in the states covered by the financing fund, with an emphasis on education in the municipal network of Maravilha-SC, describing the changes that have occurred in the new fund. The methodology applied was bibliographic and documentary. The research found that in the municipality of Maravilha-SC, the changes with the New Fundeb have had a positive impact on education. The municipality has been able to invest in improvements in schools, teacher training, and the provision of adequate teaching materials. In 2022, the municipality invested R$30.2 million in education, and in 2023, this amount rose to R$33.5 million. In addition, education professionals have been valued, which directly reflects on the quality of education offered to students.
