• SDGs 2-4-5 in the Scientific Production of UERJ-FEBF (Duque de Caxias) and USP-EACH (Leste): Peripheries and the 2030 Agenda

Period: 2020 – Present

This project aligns, adapts, and establishes pragmatic and subjective parameters inherent to the involved institutions (UERJ-FEBF in Duque de Caxias; PPGEDUC in Nova Iguaçu; and USP-EACH-Leste) to determine whether their internal academic production (courses and ongoing research) addresses and/or promotes three of the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs): Eradication of Hunger (SDG-2); Quality Education (SDG-4); and Gender Equality (SDG-5). While each SDG has broad implications, their assessment at a localized scale facilitates their dissemination, the identification of specific challenges, and the search for theoretical and practical solutions to the related issues.
Funding: FAPERJ

• International Pedagogical and Advocacy Dialogues: Women Leaders in Education Between the Local and the Global

Period: 2016 – Present

This project encourages undergraduate students at UERJ-FEBF and graduate students in Education at UFRRJ to engage with and produce dialogical knowledge. Objectives: To conduct interviews with international scholars from the Women Leading Education Group (WLE) and local educators from Duque de Caxias and other municipalities in Baixada Fluminense to understand how they pedagogically address stereotypes and gender and racial inequalities within educational institutions and to leverage the proponent’s membership in the WLE Group to adopt a methodological approach that integrates transdisciplinary themes and emphasizes the theoretical intersection of Education, Communication, and Advocacy.

Start Date: 2019 – Ongoing
