Dashboard para Monitoramento da Circulação de Moedas Sociais no Brasil: indicadores e visualizações de dados.

Social currencies are instruments for fostering the solidarity economy and local development, but monitoring their real impact still lacks structured mechanisms. In this context, this study aims to identify and define monitoring indicators for social
currencies, grounded in the literature, and propose the structuring of a dashboard for public administration. Guided by the Design Science Research (DSR) methodology, the study focused on a literature review regarding income transfer policies and monetary circulation. This theoretical foundation enabled the mapping and definition of key indicators, highlighting the Local Multiplier 3 (LM3), territorial wealth retention metrics, and the cross-referencing of transactional data with the Brazilian Deprivation Index (IBP). Based on these indicators, a visualization dashboard prototype focused on the Arariboia currency (Niterói, RJ) was developed. The prototype validated the relevance of the chosen indicators in diagnosing dynamics such as resource leakage and neighborhood commercial infrastructure. It is concluded that centralized data visualization provides guidance for expanding and improving public policies.
