The institutional framework is created by several dimensions. They determine its didactic and pedagogical structure, its organization and management of the institution, planning, assessment and policies. The institutional policies aim at its internal public (teachers, education administrative technical department and students) and external (local community, social groups, municipal, state and federal governments). The social institution, such as public university and, in this case, the Universidade Federal do Pampa (UNIPAMPA), acts along with the internal community, at the same time, assures the external community participation, which might give something back through projects and social contributions. The dissertation aims at outline the social capital indexes for the institutional social responsibility towards Universidade Federal do Pampa, having as reference Robert Putnam?s. The method applied in this work identified categories that appeared pre-analysis, by exploring the material and handling the results. Thus, the following categories are: (a) cooperation and (b) systems of participation. In this perspective, thinking about the institutional social responsibility of UNIPAMPA means to assume its commitment as social agent. In this way, the relationship network between the institution and the communities is based on human relations. Finally, it involves the consolidation of the social capital indexes outlined to the institutional social responsibility, which establishes such a social cohesion for public benefits.
