Young leaders prepare for international climate negotiations at COP30 with support from Coppe

The COP30 Simulation Fellowship Programme, organized by the British University in Egypt and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) Egypt, offers an immersive experience that simulates the real COP negotiations. The program brings together 150 students from various countries, who interact with chief negotiators, national delegations and international leaders, drafting youth climate declarations that are presented at the official UN event. Some participants will be selected to work directly at COP30 in Belém, bringing their proposals to the real negotiations environment.

Coppe/UFRJ plays a fundamental role in this process, contributing to the development of global leaders in climate diplomacy. Professor Andréa Santos, recognized for her work in international negotiations and presence at several COPs, is a member of the mentoring team and was responsible for coordinating UFRJ’s participation as a Brazilian partner, ensuring that students have the technical training and leadership skills to participate in global forums. 

The program goes beyond simulation: it trains students in negotiation techniques, engages the youth and highlights the role of non-state actors, as well as the technical and scientific dimensions of climate action and policymaking. The first phase, between July and August, consisted of online training and research, providing a solid foundation in climate diplomacy, global governance and environmental challenges. In the next phase, during the COP Simulation Conference, students negotiate and draft the COP Simulation Youth Declaration, a document that expresses youth priorities and proposals in the face of the climate crisis

In the final phase, those selected join the official COP30 delegation, gaining access to the Blue Zone—the restricted area where UN negotiations take place—and present their proposals directly to leaders and negotiators.

This experience prepares young people to take on leadership roles in international negotiations, reinforcing the presence of the new generation in formulating global solutions and demonstrating Coppe’s contribution to the development of international leaders and the projection of Brazilian science on the global stage, especially in initiatives that expand the relevance of countries in the Global South, such as Egypt, a partner of the program and a member of BRICS since 2024.

Coppe startup transforms bean waste into gastronomic opportunities

Whether eaten alone, with bread, rice, flour or even pasta, beans are on Brazilian families’ tables, an essential part of their diet and a hallmark of our culture. It’s no coincidence that Brazil is one of the world’s largest bean producers, with approximately 3 million tons per year. However, what’s surprising is that approximately 300,000 tons—10% of total production—are wasted annually, either because the beans are broken or irregularly sized, making their use by the industry unfeasible.

What would otherwise be a waste becomes a great opportunity, especially when new technologies make it possible to transform every grain of bean that would otherwise be wasted into a source of food and innovation.

That’s exactly what Bean Possible, a startup resident at Coppe/UFRJ’s Business Incubator, does. The company, a spin-off of the Biological Systems Engineering Laboratory at UFRJ’s School of Chemistry, has developed a pioneering process for utilizing discarded or low-value beans and transforming them into sustainable, plant-based food ingredients, with applications ranging from meat and dairy analogues to confectionery, bakery and supplement products. All while maintaining the nutritional value of the whole bean.

According to Gabrielle Gautério, cofounder and CEO, “the technology developed by Bean Possible allows us to harness this underutilized raw material, producing high-value-added national ingredients for a variety of foods and beverages, replacing imported inputs, reducing costs and simplifying logistics. It also brings environmental benefits by reducing waste and greenhouse gas emissions.”

Bean Possible currently supplies three main ingredients to food and beverage companies: concentrated protein, insoluble fiber, and bean starch. Each ingredient has specific functions:

  • Insoluble fiber: improves texture, maintains moisture, increases satiety and can promote intestinal health;
  • Concentrated protein: increases protein and amino acid content, also contributing to the product’s structure and texture, with the ability to form emulsions, foams and gels;
  • Starch: acts as a binding and bulking agent, gelling agent and thickener in plant-based formulations, in addition to providing gradual-release energy.

In addition to being sustainable, these ingredients have functionalities that allow them to be incorporated into different formulations, such as vegan burgers, sausages and meatballs; plant-based yogurts and cheeses; cookies, breads, cakes, ice cream and a multitude of other products.

Carioca beans were chosen as the base because they are the most widely grown in Brazil and have excellent nutritional quality. “During the production process, the beans are transformed into flour and undergo the application of developed technology, which separates their main components to obtain the ingredients,” explains Ailton Lemes, who is also a co-founder of Bean Possible. By combining tradition and innovation, Bean Possible demonstrates that it is possible to generate value from what would otherwise be discarded, paving the way for a more sustainable, diverse and plant-based diet.

The 2025 International Congress on Waste and Sanitation is supported and features a lecture by COPPE

Startup Launches National Prototype for Direct Air Capture of CO₂ from the Atmosphere

José Adolfo and Bianca Peres, CarbonAir´s founders

The startup CarbonAir Energy, a Coppe Business Incubator´s resident, has launched, in partnership with the Laboratory of Hydrocarbon Reactivity, Biomass, and Catalysis (LARHCO), an innovative module for direct air capture (DAC) of carbon dioxide (CO₂), entirely developed in Brazil. Launched on August 26, the equipment is capable of removing up to 5 kg of CO₂ per day, representing a significant step forward in solutions for a low-carbon economy.

According to CarbonAir’s co-founder Bianca Peres, the equipment´s purpose is to combat climate change and increase sustainability in the production of fuels and chemicals. The module uses sustainable adsorbent materials based on Brazilian biomass, developed in collaboration with LARHCO — part of UFRJ’s Institute of Chemistry (IQ) and School of Chemistry (EQ), coordinated by Professor Claudio Mota — contributing to the reduction of global greenhouse gas concentrations.

Professor Mota explains that the captured CO₂ will initially be used in the production of low-impact aviation fuel, combining atmospheric carbon with hydrogen produced via solar energy to generate hydrocarbons. New materials will also be tested in the module structured by CarbonAir.

Co-founder José Adolfo highlights that the equipment can capture over 1 ton of CO₂ per year, transforming it into valuable inputs for industry. Operating under real conditions validates the robustness of the technology and paves the way for its large-scale expansion.

The development of the adsorbent materials — part of a project focused on the production of low-impact aviation fuels — is funded by Finep and also received support from Faperj (through its energy project support programs) and CNPq (through the “Fuel of the Future” Program), coordinated by Professor Mota.

CarbonAir Energy is the first Brazilian startup dedicated to modular and customizable systems for CO₂ capture and conversion. It has already participated in competitive innovation programs such as Shell StartUp Engine, NAVE ANP, Startup Rio 2020, and Doutor Empreendedor, consolidating its technological trajectory and moving closer to the market.

This project is a clear example of how cutting-edge research developed in Coppe and UFRJ’s laboratories effectively reaches society, delivering concrete environmental solutions and driving the transition to a low-carbon economy.

Coppe welcomes representatives of global leader in clean energy

In August, Coppe/UFRJ welcomed representatives from the China Three Gorges Corporation (CTG) — a Chinese state-owned company responsible for the largest hydroelectric plant in the world, Three Gorges, and with projects spread across more than 40 countries – and of the Chongqing Institute of Green and Intelligent Technology.

The Three Gorges hydroelectric plant alone generates more than 80 terawatt-hours (TWh), which is equivalent to the average consumption of 70 million Brazilian homes.

The delegation was welcomed at the Energy Planning Program (PPE) by the team led by Professor Marco Aurélio Santos and researcher Jorge Damazio, with whom they discussed progress made by Brazil and China in measuring greenhouse gases (GHG), decarbonization strategies in the hydroelectric sector and prospects for joint research.

Dianchang Wang, CTG’s executive vice president, highlighted the company’s trajectory since the construction of the Three Gorges Hydroelectric Plant, which was initiated in 1993, highlighting its role in flood control, large-scale clean energy generation and waterway safety. He also emphasized the importance of supporting local communities with water supply, environmental preservation as well as job and income generation.

“The Brazilian hydroelectric sector has been pursuing strategies to reduce its climate impact, such as maintaining water quality in reservoirs, removing vegetation before filling to prevent the release of greenhouse gases and optimizing reservoir filling and emptying regulations,” explained Professor Marco Aurélio Santos, reinforcing Coppe’s leading role in applied research for more sustainable energy generation.

At the end of the visit, Marco Aurélio and Dianchang Wang discussed topics of common interest, such as methane recovery from reservoirs for energy use, and committed to a future partnership between Coppe and CTG to study greenhouse gas emissions from hydroelectric plants.

Brazil might become a leading player in uranium and data centers, says specialist

Vittorio Perona during the event “The Role of Nuclear Energy in the Decarbonization”

“Brazil has everything it needs to become a major producer and exporter of uranium and a strategic player in the data center segment, associated with nuclear power generation.” This is the assessment of Vittorio Perona, partner at BTG Pactual, presented during the event “The Role of Nuclear Energy in the Decarbonization of the Brazilian Energy Matrix,” promoted by Coppe/UFRJ. The debate brought together industry experts and stakeholders to discuss the role of nuclear energy in energy security, global decarbonization goals, and Brazil’s integration into high-value-added production chains.

During the meeting, Perona provided a detailed market overview, highlighting strategic opportunities for Brazil, both in uranium production and in the expansion of clean energy-powered data center infrastructure.

For COPPE director, Professor Suzana Kahn, “each choice made, among the many possible paths to decarbonization, entails a series of consequences, both pros and cons. What we aim to do, and this is the role of academia, is to understand the consequences of our choices as a country.”

Below are some of the main points highlighted by Vittorio Perona, in a question-and-answer format:

Interview

Q: What is the current scenario for uranium production in Brazil?
A: “The last geological survey focused on identifying uranium reserves in Brazil was conducted 40 years ago. Specialists told me that if it were conducted today, with current technology, Brazil would be the second or third country with the largest  proven uranium reserves. In terms of production, we are 15th. We produce 100 tons per year, not even enough for Angra I and II. Paradoxically, we have large reserves and still need to import a significant portion of our demand.”

Q: And the outlook for global uranium demand?

A: “Demand is expected to increase by 40,000 to 50,000 tons between 2024 and 2040. Therefore, there is a huge market to be served in the next 15 years.”

Q: Does Brazil have the conditions to stand out in this market?
 A: “Very few countries have their own uranium reserves, enrichment technology, experience in operating nuclear power plants and a large domestic electricity market to support new plants. Brazil has all of these. It would be a waste not to seize this opportunity, which could generate value, both in nuclear energy and in data centers.”

Q: What is Brazil’s potential in data centers?
 A: “The country could be a major data processor. The size of data centers worldwide is growing rapidly—in the US and China, there are facilities measuring hundreds of megawatts or even one gigawatt. These countries will need partners for nearshoring or friendshoring, that is, transferring stages of the value chain to nearby countries or countries with political affinity. Brazil has natural advantages: clean energy, political stability, a consolidated democracy, no seismic or terrorism risks and abundant water resources.”

Título: Polímeros: aplicações e uso consciente
Coordenador: ARIANE DE JESUS SOUSA BATISTA
Contato do coordenador: ariane.pent@gmail.com e ariane@pent.coppe.ufrj.br

Resumo: A reciclagem de plásticos é um tema importante, visto que mais de 60% de todo plástico produzido já virou resíduo e apenas 9% foi reciclado em todo mundo. No Brasil os dados são ainda mais alarmantes. O relatório apresentado pelo WWF recentemente afirma que o Brasil é o quarto maior produtor de resíduos plásticos do mundo e recicla menos de 2% desse montante. Contudo, políticas de reciclagem e educação ambiental ainda são precárias e pouco divulgadas, e a disseminação de informações que tornam os plásticos vilões fazem com que o banimento desses materiais seja cada vez mais desejável. No entanto, vale lembrar que os plásticos são polímeros de alto valor agregado, baixo custo de produção e muito versáteis, e quando reciclados podem ser reinseridos na cadeia produtiva, possibilitando a produção de novos materiais, além de alavancar o setor energético. Dessa forma esse projeto visa instruir e incentivar alunos de escolas públicas e privadas a serem multiplicadores dos conceitos de reciclagem em suas escolas, famílias e comunidade. Onde palestras e atividades lúdicas serão realizadas, de forma virtual, incentivando o descarte correto ou reutilização de resíduos plásticos, evitando que esses resíduos sejam descartados em lugares impróprios.

Título: “TÁ” LIGADO?! MINHA CÂMERA NA MÃO E UMA IDEIA NA CABEÇA – A LINGUAGEM AUDIOVISUAL COMO LIVRE EXPRESSÃO NA CONSTRUÇÃO DIALÉTICA NO ESPAÇO ENTRE A UNIVERSIDADE, A ESCOLA E A SOCIEDADE
Coordenador:  ANDREA MARIA DO NASCIMENTO SILVA
Contato do coordenador: andreanascimento@cos.ufrj.br

Resumo: Todos nós da comunidade acadêmica e escolar tivemos que nos adaptar à utilização de soluções tecnológicas para nos comunicar, socializar e nos relacionar durante o período de pandemia para reproduzir a rotina de uma sala de aula. Com isso, a linguagem audiovisual e o uso de dispositivos portáteis, como smartphones e tablets, que já era uma realidade muito presente em nossa vida, de repente, se tornou fundamental. Essa proximidade foi uma grande motivação que trouxe a memória da frase emblemática do cineasta Glauber Rocha – Uma câmera na mão e uma ideia na cabeça – que inspirou o título deste projeto e que nos faz compreender que atualmente a nossa práxis gira em torno dessa máxima que representa nosso atual cenário social nos hábitos de registrar e compartilhar nossas imagens, nossos áudios, nossos vídeos, seja de forma direta ou indiretamente nas redes sociais. Portanto, este projeto visa atender a uma demanda técnica para auxiliar a produção de conteúdo de divulgação de pesquisas, trabalhos escolares, vídeo aulas, entre outros, de forma que o público participante do projeto conheça detalhes da composição audiovisual. Enfatizar o uso da linguagem audiovisual para acesso ao conhecimento e para a troca de saberes, uma comunicação dialética onde é importante não só transmitir o conhecimento gerado na universidade mas também possibilitar que a sociedade contribua com o seu olhar, seu fazer, sua crítica.

Título: Apoio às Micro e Pequenas Empresas do estado do Rio de Janeiro para o desenvolvimento de trajetórias econômicas sustentáveis
Coordenador: AMANDA FERNANDES XAVIER PEDROSA
Contato do coordenador: amandaxavier86@gmail.com

Resumo: As MPE compõe 92% das empresas do Estado do Rio de Janeiro (RJ) e são responsáveis por mais de 50% dos empregos formais (Brasil, 2020). No entanto, as MPE enfrentam enormes desafios, sobretudo pela amplitude da atual crise sanitária, econômica e social (CNI, 2021; SEBRAE, 2020), colocando em evidencia o modelo econômico dominante, centrado na produção em massa de bens materiais e de performance financeira (Fernandes et al., 2021; Lima & Dias, 2020). Nesse sentido, esse projeto se fundamenta na perspectiva da Economia da Funcionalidade e da Cooperação (EFC), que tem como proposta fornecer soluções integradas de bens e serviços a partir da cooperação entre diferentes atores territoriais, abandonando a noção de escalabilidade e desenvolvendo novos modelos de governança de empresas e territórios (Du Tertre et al., 2019). Essa abordagem interacionista permite um menor consumo de recursos naturais e a renovação do vínculo social, criando resiliência para as relações econômicas, tão fragilizadas diante do cenário atual (Xavier et al., 2021; Roman et al., 2020). Este projeto visa apoiar as Micro e Pequenas Empresas do estado do Rio de Janeiro no desenvolvimento de trajetórias econômicas sustentáveis, criando impacto direto na sociedade e na comunidade científica. Para tanto, visa a formação, acompanhamento e intervenção de dirigentes de empresas para transição de modelo econômico a partir do Modelo da Economia da Funcionalidade e da Cooperação.

Título: Boas Práticas de Acolhimento – Saberes, Convivências e Aprendizagens
Coordenador:  VANDA BORGES DE SOUZA
Contato do coordenador: vanda@adc.coppe.ufrj.br

Resumo: Entende-se que o acolhimento poderá ampliar sua esfera de atuação, para além do campo psicossocial, podendo alcançar também o contexto socioeconômico, acadêmico, das relações laborais entre outros. Com o passar do tempo, a sobrevivência às situações de adoecimento, outros aspectos do acolhimento foram se apresentando. O acolhimento financeiro, o acolhimento acadêmico, o acolhimento dos conflitos e dificuldades de relacionamentos, o acolhimento laboral pela dificuldade de absorção e entendimento das novas formas de trabalho surgidas. A partir de então, se fez necessário repensar como dar conta de considerar todos esses tipos de acolhimentos. Neste sentido, este projeto pretende evidenciar a importância de compartilhar uma informação que oriente e facilite os indivíduos para o desempenho de ações de acolhimento nos diversos espaços de convivência. Por isso, saberes, convivências e aprendizagens fazem parte de uma via de mão dupla. Ou seja, cada parte tem o que a transmitir, conhecer e se aperfeiçoar com a outra.

Resumo: Em 2022, os desastres causaram mais de 30,704 mortes e com 185 milhões de pessoas afetadas, e prejuízos de 223.8 bilhões de dólares segundo o Centre for Research on the Epidemiology of Disasters (CRED). No Brasil, entre 2011 a 2022, especificamente no Rio de Janeiro, houve 591 ocorrências de desastres, resultando em 987 mortes e afetando 3,9 milhões de pessoas, e prejuízos econômicos superior a R$ 3,08 bilhões (Atlas digital de desastres no Brasil, 2023). Tais dados demonstram a importância e a complexidade das Operações Humanitárias e de Desastres (OHD), as quais envolvem o acesso as áreas afetadas, a coordenação de diversos stakeholders e falta de recursos. Assim surge o projeto Droneiros Voluntários, idealizado no âmbito do Programa de Engenharia de Produção da COPPE/CT/UFRJ de forma a auxiliar a escassez de recursos humanos e tecnológicos na resposta a desastres. O projeto conta com uma plataforma tecnológica que atua como um facilitador, unindo proprietários de drones, defesa civil e outras organizações no desenvolvimento de ações de mapeamento de áreas de risco e afetadas por desastres, promovendo uma colaboração entre stakeholders mais eficaz e eficiente no contexto de OHD. Nesse sentido, o projeto atua no engajamento e promoção da troca de conhecimento entre os diferentes atores tratados como público alvo, promovendo OHD eficazes e mais eficientes, com integração entre diferentes áreas de conhecimento científico e pesquisadores de diferentes níveis que atuam em OHD.

Resumo: O Alto Comissariado das Nações Unidas para Refugiados (ACNUR) revela que em 2022 o mundo ultrapassou a marca de 100 milhões de pessoas em deslocamento forçado, motivados por inúmeras razões. No Brasil, desde 2011 foram realizadas 297.712 solicitações de reconhecimento da condição de refugiado. Devido a sua complexidade e alta quantidade de pessoas afetadas, a crise humanitária de refugiados precisa ser enfrentada pelos governos em comunhão com a sociedade civil e o setor privado, a fim de se garantir que as pessoas em deslocamento forçado tenham seus direitos humanos protegidos durante um processo de acolhimento efetivo e atento às suas necessidades. Assim, interessados em auxiliar no enfrentamento brasileiro à crise migratória, a Rede Refugia foi idealizada no âmbito do Programa de Engenharia de Produção da COPPE/CT/UFRJ. Trata-se de uma plataforma tecnológica colaborativa que objetiva facilitar o processo de acolhimento, proteção e integração de pessoas em deslocamento forçado que estão no Brasil. Dessa forma busca-se fortalecer os processos de colaboração mútua entre refugiados, solicitantes de refúgio, apátridas, poder público, entidades privadas, organizações humanitárias e outros stakeholders. Por meio de um processo de inovação social, a Rede Refugia busca fomentar um ambiente que favoreça a implementação de soluções inovadoras para os problemas vivenciados pelas pessoas em deslocamento forçado vivendo em solo brasileiro.

Action name: Hybrid Education: Challenges and perspectives in engineering and basic education
Coordinator: MARCELLO LUIZ RODRIGUES DE CAMPOS
Contact information: campos@smt.ufrj.br

About the action: The COVID-19 pandemic enforced a drastic transition from the traditional teaching model to strictly online classes, having required a great effort to prepare and offer courses to students ranging from primary to higher education, since only a few were prepared to deal with technologies for online teaching. Even months after social distancing started, the in-person to online transition was not a trivial process, especially when it came to maintaining the quality of the courses offered in this new modality. This process taught us one important lesson: it is necessary that we permanently invest in implementing innovative/efficient technologies for improved teaching and learning. As such, this project aims to support public education in the state of Rio de Janeiro, from basic education to higher Education in engineering at other universities. With a hybrid learning modality, our purpose is to develop resources and courses that incorporate active learning methods, flipped classrooms, multimodality, etc.

Action name: Polymers: applications and awareness
Coordinator: ARIANE DE JESUS SOUSA BATISTA
Contact information: ariane.pent@gmail.com and ariane@pent.coppe.ufrj.br

About the action: Plastic recycling has become a very important matter, since over 60% of all plastic produced globally has already become waste but only 9% has been recycled. In Brazil, the situation is even more alarming. A recent WWF report states that Brazil is the fourth largest producer of plastic waste worldwide, with a recycling rate of less than 2%. Our policies for recycling and environmental education are still insufficient and poorly publicized. Furthermore, plastics have recently been made out to be villains, making it increasingly desirable that these materials are banned. However, it is worth remembering that plastics are polymers with high value-added, low production costs, and very versatile properties. When recycled, they can be reinserted into the production chain, which enables the production of new materials and boosts the energy industry. As such, our project aims to guide and encourage students from public and private schools to reproduce the concept of recycling in their schools, families, and communities. We hold online lectures and fun activities that stimulate the reuse and proper disposal of plastic waste, preventing it from being disposed of in inappropriate places.

Action name: A Program for Community Business Incubation – Social Innovation in EES (Solidarity Economy Business) Incubators
Coordinator: AMANDA FERNANDES XAVIER PEDROSA
Contact information: amandaxavier86@gmail.com

About the action: Since its creation, the ITCP/COPPE (Technology Business Incubator for Community Cooperatives) has been working to support community-based enterprises, aiming at meeting the needs of the working class and informal workers, which have historically been marginalized and excluded from social actions developed by the government. The new challenges of today require new techniques and tools. As such, this is a proposal that researches innovative business incubation methodologies for the purpose of improving the activities of the incubated enterprises and providing continuity to the actions developed by ITCP/COPPE. Ultimately, implementing such new methodologies will improve the quality of Solidarity Economy Businesses.

Contato do coordenador: luizart@gmail.com

Resumo: O Observatório de Bancos Comunitários e Moedas Sociais Digitais UFRJ visa visibilizar, fortalecer e refletir sobre tais experiências, seja na promoção de espaços de debate e de ensino-aprendizagem, seja no desenvolvimento de tecnologias com os coletivos envolvidos. Inspira-se na (e em articula-se com a) rede formada por pesquisadores extensionistas iniciada em 2020, o Observatório de Bancos Comunitários e Moedas Sociais (OBM). Este reúne pesquisadores engajados em aliar seus conhecimentos acadêmicos com as atividades práticas de bancos comunitários e moedas sociais do Brasil, nas perspectivas da escuta dos coletivos envolvidos, do engajamento extensionista e da análise das práticas dos coletivos envolvidos. “Bancos Comunitários são serviços financeiros solidários, em rede, de natureza associativa e comunitária, voltados para a geração de trabalho e renda na perspectiva de reorganização das economias locais”. Reúnem práticas e princípios, como a concessão de microcrédito para produção e consumo locais, sempre que possível em moedas sociais (válidas em um território restrito e com paridade com o Real)(https://www.institutobancopalmas.org/o-que-e-um-banco-comunitario/). No Brasil, tais bancos tiveram como experiência pioneira o Banco Palmas (Fortaleza, 1998) e acumulam mais de 150 iniciativas. Com a digitalização de suas moedas sociais, inspiraram e articularam-se com políticas públicas de transferência de renda, notadamente no Estado do RJ.

Action name: “Y’KNOW”?! my camera in my hand and an idea in my head – audiovisual language as free expression in the dialectic construction within the space between university, school and society
Coordinator:  ANDREA MARIA DO NASCIMENTO SILVA
Contact information: andreanascimento@cos.ufrj.br

About the action: All of us from the academic and school community had to adapt ourselves to the use of technological solutions in order to communicate, socialize and engage with each other during the pandemic while aiming towards reproducing a classroom routine. As a result, audiovisual language and the use of portable devices such as smartphones and tablets, which were already a very present reality in our lives, suddenly became fundamental. This proximity was a great motivation that brought to memory the emblematic quote from filmmaker Glauber Rocha – A camera in hand and an idea in my head – which inspired the name of this project and makes us comprehend that our current practice revolves around this idea which represents our current social scenario in the habits of registering and sharing our images, voice messages, our videos, whether directly or indirectly on social media. Therefore, this project aims to meet a technical demand to assist in the production of content regarding the dissemination of research, school work, video lessons, among others, in a way that the audience participating in the project is familiar with the details of audiovisual composition. Emphasizing the use of audiovisual language as a vehicle for learning and sharing knowledge, a dialectical communication where it is important not only to transmit the knowledge generated at universities but also enable society to contribute with its gaze, its action and its criticism.

Action name: Support for Micro and Small Companies in the state of Rio de Janeiro for the development of sustainable economic trajectories
Coordinator: AMANDA FERNANDES XAVIER PEDROSA
Contact information: amandaxavier86@gmail.com

About the action: SMEs make up 92% of companies in the State of Rio de Janeiro (RJ) and are responsible for over 50% of formal employment (Brazil, 2020). However, as SMEs face huge challenges, especially due to the extent of the current health, economic and social crisis (CNI, 2021; SEBRAE, 2020), highlighting the dominant economic model, centered around the mass production of material assets and financial statement (Fernandes et al., 2021; Lima & Dias, 2020). In this sense, this project is based on the perspective of the Economy of Functionality and Cooperation (EFC), which aims to provide integrated solutions for assets and services through the cooperation between different territorial actors, abandoning the notion of stability and developing new governance models for companies and territories (Du Tertre et al., 2019). This interactionist approach allows for less consumption of natural resources and a renewal of social bonds, creating resilience for economic relations, which have been so fragile due to the current scenario (Xavier et al., 2021; Roman et al., 2020). This project aims to support Micro and Small companies in the state of Rio de Janeiro in developing sustainable economic trajectories, creating a direct impact on society and the scientific community. To this end, it aims to train, monitor and intervene with business leaders for the transition of their economic model based on the Economy of the Functionality and Cooperation Model.

Action name: Best Practices on Emotional Care – Knowledge, Coexistence and Learning
Coordinator:  VANDA BORGES DE SOUZA
Contact information: vanda@adc.coppe.ufrj.br

About the action: It is understood that when providing care, one can expand the scope of its action beyond the psychosocial field, therefore also reaching the socioeconomic, academic and employment relations context, among others. Over time, other aspects of the care being provided started to emerge, as a way to survive situations of illness, such as financial care, academic care, care regarding relationship conflicts and challenges, as well as regarding labor due to the difficulty in absorbing and comprehending the new emerging work forms. From then on, it has been necessary to rethink a way to encompass all of these different types of care. In this sense, this project intends to highlight the importance of sharing information that directs and helps individuals in performing actions of care in several mutual commonspaces. Therefore, knowledge, coexistence and learning are a part of two-way street, meaning that each part has something to transmit, learn and improve with the other.

Action name: Training youngsters for the IT market in Nova Friburgo, an approach through active learning: introduction to Python programming
Coordinator:  EDMUNDO ALBUQUERQUE DE SOUZA E SILVA
Contact information: edmundo@land.ufrj.br

About the action: This course is an action provided for in the Outreach Project: “Hybrid Education: Challenges and perspectives in engineering and basic education”, which is already registered in SIGA, by COPPE. The outreach project registered in SIGA has as one of its goals to create courses in key areas for the development of the State and in accordance with COPPE’s multidisciplinary experience. Through a partnership with the Ideias de Friburgo NGO, which provided the necessary infrastructure (physical space, computers, local staff, etc), a space for training youngsters with a public high school background was created. The idea for the course emerged during the development of programming classes for an advanced course in Artificial Intelligence techniques with a hybrid format based on Project-Based Learning (PBL, FAPERJ project) so that the experience of the PBL project was applied to young students. The course aims to introduce the youngsters to modern computer languages as well as provide essential training in order to enable the public school student to enter the local job market more easily. Selected students have the opportunity to learn programming in practice, based on the Python language, to better understand and try to propose solutions to real problems in the city of Friburgo when possible. The course also aims to provide incentive so that egressed students can continue their studies in additional topics of computer technology.

Action name: Volunteer Drone Pilots
Coordinator: THARCISYO COTTA FONTAINHA
Contact information: tcottaf@gmail.com

About the action: In 2022, disasters caused over 30,704 deaths, affected 185 million people, and induced economic losses of 223.8 billion dollars according to the Centre for Research on the Epidemiology of Disasters (CRED). In Brazil, between 2011 and 2022, specifically in  Rio de Janeiro, there have been 591 disaster occurrences, resulting in 987 deaths, affecting around 3,9 million people and inducing economic losses of over R$3,08 billion (Digital atlas of disasters in Brazil, 2023). Such data demonstrates the importance and complexity of Humanitarian and Disasters Operations (OHD), which involve access to affected areas, coordination of several stakeholders and lack of resources. Thus, the Volunteer Drone Pilots project was created, idealized within the scope of the COPPE/CT/UFRJ Industrial Engineering Program in order to help with the shortage of human and technological resources in disaster response. The project has a technological platform that acts as a facilitator, uniting drone owners, civil defense and other organizations in the development of actions to map areas at risk and affected by disasters, promoting more effective and efficient collaboration between stakeholders in the context of OHD. In this sense, the project works to engage and promote knowledge exchange among the different actors treated as target audience, promoting effective and more efficient OHD, with the integration of different scientific knowledge areas and researchers of different levels who act in OHD.

Action name: Rede Refugia
Coordinator:  THARCISYO COTTA FONTAINHA
Contact information: tcottaf@gmail.com

About the action: The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) reveals that in 2022 the world surpassed the mark of 100 million people in forced displacement, motivated by numerous reasons. In Brazil, since 2011 297.712 requests for the recognition of refugee status have been made. Due to its complexity and high amount of people affected, the humanitarian refugee crisis has to be addressed by governments in partnership with civil society and the private sector, in order to ensure that people in forced displacement have their human rights protected during an effective reception process that is attentive to their needs. Thus, those interested in helping Brazil face its migration crisis, Rede Refugia was created within the scope of the Industrial Engineering Program at COPPE/CT/UFRJ. It is a collaborative technological platform that aims to facilitate the process of reception, protection and integration of these people in forced displacement who are in Brazil. In this way, we seek to strengthen the mutual collaboration processes among refugees, asylum seekers, stateless people, public authorities, private entities, humanitarian organizations and other stakeholders. Through a social innovation process, Rede Refugia aims to foster an environment that favors the implementation of innovative solutions to the problems experienced by people in forced displacement living in Brazilian territory.

Action name: UFRJ Observatory of Community Bank and Digital Local Currency
Coordinator: LUIZ ARTHUR SILVA DE FARIA
Contact information: luizart@gmail.com

About the action: The UFRJ Observatory of Community Bank and Digital Local Currency aims to make such experiences visible as well as strengthen and reflect on them, whether by promoting spaces for debate and teaching-learning or by developing technologies with the involved groups. It is inspired by (and works in tandem with) the network formed by science outreach researchers which began in 2020, the Observatory of Community Bank and Local Currency (OBM). This network brings together researchers engaged in allying their academic knowledge with the practical activities of community banks and social currency in Brazil, from the perspective of listening to the involved groups, engaging in outreach work and analysing the practices of the groups involved. “Community Banks are solidarity-based financial services, in a network, of an associative and communitary nature, aimed at generating work and income with a perspective of reorganizing local economies”. They bring together practices and principles, such as a microcredit granting for local production and consumption, whenever possible, in social currencies (valid in a restricted territory and at par with the Real)(https://www.institutobancopalmas.org/o-que-e-um-banco-comunitario/). In Brazil, such banks had Banco Palmas (Fortaleza, 1998) as their pioneering experience and accumulated more than 150 initiatives. With the digitalization of their social currencies, they inspired and worked in tandem with public policies for income transfer, notably in the State of RJ.
