9.3 Increase the access of small-scale industrial and other enterprises, in particular in developing countries, to financial services, including affordable credit, and their integration into value chains and markets;
9.4 By 2030, upgrade infrastructure and retrofit industries to make them sustainable, with increased resource-use efficiency and greater adoption of clean and environmentally sound technologies and industrial processes, with all countries taking action in accordance with their respective capabilities;
9.5 Enhance scientific research, upgrade the technological capabilities of industrial sectors in all countries, in particular developing countries, including, by 2030, encouraging innovation and substantially increasing the number of research and development workers per 1 million people and public and private research and development spending;
9.A Facilitate sustainable and resilient infrastructure development in developing countries through enhanced financial, technological and technical support to African countries, least developed countries, landlocked developing countries and small island developing States 18;
9.B Support domestic technology development, research and innovation in developing countries, including by ensuring a conducive policy environment for, inter alia, industrial diversification and value addition to commodities;
9.C Significantly increase access to information and communications technology and strive to provide universal and affordable access to the Internet in least developed countries by 2020.

Sustainable polymers with functional properties, such as antioxidant and antimicrobial activities, are emerging as key players in the field of packaging and food safety. In the current context, the use of essential oils as additives stands out as an innovative strategy to address challenges related to managing plastics derived from fossil sources. Despite advancements in incorporating the…
This research proposal is to establish a São Paulo Excellence Chair (SPEC) at the University of Campinas (UNICAMP) to develop a broad research program to create evidence and knowledge for more effective monitoring of Science, Technology, and Innovation (STI). The program addresses critical and contemporary issues in STI indicators and policy making, addressing pervasive challenges regardi…
The aging of the population living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) in Brazil presents new challenges for the Unified Health System (SUS), requiring care approaches that consider the clinical, functional, and psychosocial specificities of this group. Despite therapeutic advances that have increased the life expectancy of PLWHA, aging with HIV is associated with a higher risk of multimorbidities, fra…

This project aims to investigate the application of plasmon resonance using silver (Ag), gold (Au), and platinum (Pt) nanoparticles supported on niobium oxide (Nb2O5) for the degradation of microplastics, specifically those derived from polyester fibers in fabrics, both from the textile industry and domestic use (mainly from laundry). The Ag, Au, and Pt nanoparticles, combined with the Nb…
In Brazil, the expansion of sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) into more restrictive environments has impacted the crop's average yield. The reuse of by-products from the industrial process as fertilizers, such as vinasse, is one of the many strategies to increase stalk productivity. However, vinasse application can reduce the total recoverable sugar (TRS) concentration in the industry. In this c…
This project aims to understand how the implementation of new electoral technologies, such as electronic voting machines, is influenced by the political competition surrounding the transformation of electoral institutions in Paraguay. The work also seeks to expand the discussion of Science, Technology and Innovation (ST&I) issues, with an emphasis on the study of electronic voting. The st…

Microorganisms in stressed environments possess significant genetic potential. Examples include adaptations to variations in temperature, radiation, salinity, acidity, or pressure. By studying microbial diversity, with an emphasis on the metabolic activities of these microorganisms, it is possible to uncover the biochemical strategies that enable their survival. These discoveries represen…
Lipases are versatile enzymes with wide-ranging industrial applications, including the food, pharmaceutical, biofuel, and textile sectors. The growing demand for sustainable processes highlights the need to explore new sources for enzyme production. Geotrichum candidum, a filamentous fungus capable of metabolizing various substrates, shows promising potential for lipase production. In thi…

Gender inequalities remain a persistent challenge in Science, Technology, and Innovation (STI), despite decades of political and institutional efforts. Global data show that women represent only about one third of the scientific community, with even lower participation in STEM fields such as physics, engineering, and computer science. Beyond numerical underrepresentation, structural, inst…
Rare earth elements (REEs) are essential components in several applications, including clean energy, electronics, and various industrial processes. As demand for REEs increases and environmental concerns about primary mining grow, recovering the metals from recycled materials has become a more prominent solution. The recovery of neodymium, praseodymium, lanthanum, and cerium from wastes p…
Cannabidiol (CBD), a non-psychoactive compound derived from Cannabis sativa, holds promising therapeutic potential, however it faces significant formulation challenges due to its high lipophilicity, low aqueous solubility, and poor oral bioavailability. Organogels, semisolid systems composed of plant-based oils structured by low concentrations of gelators, represent a promising strategy f…

The growing demand for lithium-ion batteries has driven the need to efficiently recycle critical metals such as cobalt (Co), aiming to reduce dependence on mining and its associated environmental and social impacts. This project proposes an innovative method for the selective recovery of Co from spent batteries using deep eutectic solvents (DES) assisted by microwave and ultrasound. Combi…
The production of green hydrogen (bio-H2), biomethane (bio-CH4), and biogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) relies on an efficient process of biogas capture, purification, and storage, with the gas separation stage being a key factor in its viability. In this context, the development of advanced polymeric membranes emerges as a promising technological solution, capable of optimizing biogas purific…
Castable refractories are commonly employed as linings in vessels for the transportation and/or processing of materials at high temperatures, owing to their satisfactory thermomechanical properties for such applications. In these conditions, where they are subjected to temperature gradients and thermal shocks, the occurrence of cracks is inevitable. Therefore, resisting the propagation of…
