About the event
Science that brings us closer
Disseminate, popularize, and inspire — connecting university, schools, and community.
The Week of Science and Technology (SCT) is UNESC's institutional event in celebration of the National Week of Science and Technology, promoted by the Ministry of Science, Technology, and Innovation (MCTI). The XVII edition covers the fields of Applied Social Sciences, Humanities, Science and Education, Health Sciences, and Engineering and Technologies, bringing together the academic community, professionals, researchers, and society at large through keynote lectures, round tables, mini-courses, workshops, scientific presentation sessions (posters and oral communications), science fairs, and scientific dissemination activities.
"Their Science"
The theme focuses on valuing women's participation in scientific, technological, and innovative production, recognizing historical and contemporary trajectories, and promoting more equitable, diverse, and inclusive environments in science. The event encourages reflections on the challenges faced by women researchers and strategies to enhance access, retention, and female leadership in scientific and technological spaces.
Recognition of the historical and contemporary trajectories of women researchers, highlighting how their work positively impacts the quality of scientific production, innovation, and the development of solutions to contemporary challenges.
Fairs, exhibitions, and interactive spaces to bring science and society closer together, stimulating scientific interest beyond the academic environment and promoting community engagement with the University.
Promotion of gender equity in academia, enhancing access, retention, and female leadership in scientific and technological spaces, and strengthening inter-institutional research networks.
