Abstract

Brazilian beaches offer services and need an infrastructure aligned and integrated with the legislation, with the interests of the involved stakeholders and with an established governance. To meet this demand, there is the international ISO 13.009: 2015 standard that deals specifically with beach management. This paper aims to present how this instrument could contribute to the process of governance and competence assignment of the management institutions involved to minimize the existing conflicts. A bibliographical and documentary review was carried out to verify the conformity between this standard and the legislation pertinent to a conflict on Camboinhas Beach, regarding the infrastructure. Through a comparative process between the minimum requirements of ISO 13.009: 2015 and the relevant legislation, the degree of contribution of the standard to the resolution of the conflict was estimated. From the Term of Adjustment of Conduct (TAC) issued by the Public Prosecution Office, it was found that if the kiosks were in conformity with the norm, there could be a direct contribution to the resolution of the conflict, which would correspond to a conformity of 54.29% of the clauses previously agreed in the TAC. In addition, it was verified a divergence of the relevant legislation from the minimum requirements of the standard by 35.48%. In this way, the results indicate that the conformity of the beach kiosks could contribute to the overall governance and competence process of the involved institutions, minimizing other existing conflicts and attracting investments to the beach.
