This paper presents the results and discussions obtained through a research made to characterize and analyze the institutional arrangement of metropolitan management in Goiania Metropolitan Region, approaching aspects related to instances and metropolitan management instruments and also related to articulations build to the metropolitan governance, developed on the project Brazil’s Metropolitan Governance (2012-14) in the framework Rede Ipea. To do the research, an exploratory study was made, starting with bibliographical and documental revision of essays that approached the theme. After that, an opinion research proceeded, with semi-structured interviews, with some of the people who represented the public and private sectors of the organized civil society, related or involved in some metropolitan activity. In general, certain knowledge about the institutional arrangement and its relevance was shown, but there is not a “culture of the regional” in the region. The Goiania Region Metropolitan metropolitan governance, even though it has a “good institutional arrangement”, is considered weak because, practically, it doesn’t work effectively.
