Objective: The present study area is a conservation unit that faces environmental conflicts associated with deforestation, hence the objective of this article is to evaluate changes in land use and land cover between the years 1985 and 2020, in the region currently covered by the Park State of Morro do Chapéu/BA and its surroundings, in addition to predicting future scenarios. Method: Images from the Mapbiomas project from 1985 and 2020 were used, and from the neural network method, using the MOLUSCE plugin, it was possible to simulate a land use and land cover model for the year 2040. Results and conclusion: The results showed little significant changes, practically imperceptible, with the most affected areas being those occupied by natural vegetation and agricultural classes. Research implications: The Morro de Chapéu State Park is home to numerous floristic and faunal species, in addition to its physical, biological and environmental complexity, therefore predicting changes in the dynamics of land use and cover is the main factor for conserving this wealth. Originality/value: This study contributes to the implementation of policies aimed at preserving this conservation unit and at the same time incorporates an unprecedented element with the simulations of future scenarios.

Objective: this study aims to: i) evaluate whether the dimensions of Burnout Syndrome are related to the dimensions of the Worker Emotional Health Inventory; and ii) verify the incidence level of the Burnout Syndrome dimensions and the Worker Emotional Health Inventory. Method: a survey was used from 160 workers who, during the COVID-19 pandemic, worked from home office. The estimation method used was SEM - PLS from the SmartPLS® software and the complementary NCA technique, and to test the intensity of the dimensions, standardization of scores was used. Results and conclusion: even professionals working from home showed high professional fulfillment, low depersonalization and moderate emotional exhaustion, and a greater prevalence of positive emotions compared to negative ones. Furthermore, it was possible to identify a positive relationship between Professional Fulfillment and Positive Emotional Health. Negative Emotional Health is negatively related to Positive Emotional Health, just as Negative Emotional Health is related to higher levels of Emotional Exhaustion and Depersonalization.

Purpose: This study aims to identify the barriers and drivers towards the adoption of water reuse systems in buildings in regions with water scarcity, such as the Brazilian Northeast. Method: A qualitative study was carried out in the state of Ceará, Brazil. The study encompassed the analysis of content from seventeen in-depth interviews and documentary evidence. Results and conclusion: The primary adoption drivers were found to be economic savings through consumption reduction and environmental awareness. Main barriers included the initial investment and payback time, as well as user practices, such as residents' lack of system maintenance. In addition, political and institutional aspects, such as the absence of fiscal incentives, also played a key role. In conclusion, water reuse in buildings constitutes an innovation that requires further development to promote significant adjustments of the socio-technical regime. Originality/value: This research introduces innovation by conducting an analysis of the adoption of water reuse in buildings based on the multi-level perspective of socio-technical transitions towards sustainability. It focuses on a state in the Brazilian Northeast, whose territory is primarily situated in the Caatinga biome, characterized by a semi-arid climate and a history of severe drought cycles. Research implications: The results provide valuable insights for researchers, technology developers, and policymakers to develop actions that stimulate the implementation and diffusion of water reuse in buildings.

Objective: To assess the integrated concession model adopted by São Simão, a municipality in the state of Goiás, which encompasses water supply, sanitary sewage, and urban solid waste management services.
Theoretical Framework: Law 14,026 established the year 2033 for the universalization of water supply and sanitation services and the year 2024 for the implementation of environmentally adequate final disposal in Brazilian municipalities (Brasil, 2020a). Due to reduced federal funding for investment, the federal government has sought the involvement of private entities to ensure the capacity for investment, operation, and maintenance of these services.
Method: Information about the federal government's strategy was obtained from the websites of the Ministries of Regional Development and Economy and the Caixa Econômica Federal. For the case study of the integrated concession, research was conducted on the reference studies of the modeling and the bidding notice, made publicly available by the municipality on its website.
Results and Conclusion: The tariffs obtained in the concession modeling indicate an average commitment of 4.12% of the household income, in line with international benchmarks for expenditure on basic sanitation and consistent with market-practice values. Tariff affordability and the economic-financial feasibility of the project were enhanced by the synergy among the three sanitation sectors.
Research implications: The model enables the achievement of the goals set by the new legal framework for sanitation through a standard concession, without any counterpart or additional input from the municipality.
Originality/Value: The integrated concession model represents an innovative venture with the potential to boost the economic and financial sustainability of universal access to basic sanitation in the country.

Objective: To evaluate the efficiency of dormancy breaking methods in seeds of C. paulinea and C. Spectabilis.
Theoretical reference: Species of crotalaria, such as C. paulinea and C. spectabilis, found in the Brazilian territory, are used as green manure in large crops and vegetable productions. However, the presence of tegumentary hardness in their seeds can result in failures in soil cover, which favor the emergence of weeds.
Method/design/approach: The research was carried out at the Laboratório de Análise de Sementes of the Departamento de Agronomia, at the Universidade Federal de Viçosa, Minas Gerais. Twenty treatments were applied to the seeds to break dormancy, using mechanical scarification with 120 grit sandpaper, hot water in an oven at 90 °C for five and seven minutes, and immersion in sodium hypochlorite at four concentrations, 2%, 4%, 6% and 8%, for four times, two, four, six and eight hours.
Results and conclusion: The most efficient treatments for breaking this dormancy in both species of crotalaria were scarification with sandpaper and immersion in water at 90±3 °C for seven minutes. Treatments using sodium hypochlorite were not effective in reducing the number of hard seeds.
Originality/value: Feasibility of the methods applied to break dormancy in seeds of C. paulinea and C. Spectabilis, since they are used for green manure, and control of Aedes aegypti, among other purposes.

Objective: To analyze regulatory and public policy, economic, agronomic, infrastructure, and technological barriers in the context of Geographical Indications. Method: This study was carried out from the perspective of exploratory research since it is a conceptual approach, which investigates the main characteristics of the studied phenomenon. Considering the way in which the data were obtained, it consists of a bibliographical study of a qualitative nature, which has the cachaça productive chain as its central element. Results and conclusion: It is observed that the foundation of the GI is based on the relationship between natural resources, the organization of social and economic processes, and cultural and power relations. The obstacles highlighted from the point of view of specialists directly affect the development process of the cachaça production chain, but it is a historically important activity for Brazil. Research implications: They range from direct support to the cachaça industry and the formulation of public policies to the advancement of academic knowledge and the strengthening of regional culture and economy. It contributes to multiple aspects of society, highlighting the relevance of Geographical Indications. Originality/value: The identification of critical obstacles in the cachaça production chain, deepening the understanding of the complex relationship between natural resources, culture, and social and economic processes in the formation of Geographical Indications (GIs) in Brazil fills an important gap in the context of the growing recognition of GIs in Brazil.

Objective: The aim of this study was to produce and evaluate the technological properties of artificial agglomerated stone slabs produced using the waste from the stone commercially known as "Preto São Gabriel," using epoxy resin and castor oil-based polyurethane. Theoretical framework: Ornamental stones are widely used in the construction sector and are of great economic importance to the country. During the production stages, a significant amount of waste is generated. The production process generates a substantial amount of waste from the extraction and processing processes that have no economic value, accounting for approximately 40 to 60% of the production during mining, and during the cutting stage, about 30 to 35% is generated. Method: To manufacture the artificial stone slabs, the waste was crushed in a jaw crusher and ceramic plate mill and screened into three particle size ranges. The slabs were produced using the vacuum vibro-compression method. Technological characterization tests were conducted, including bulk density, apparent porosity, water absorption, and three-point strength tests. Results and conclusions: It is concluded that slabs produced with both resins can be applied in locations requiring good flexural strength. For use in areas with water presence, those produced with epoxy resin are recommended, as they exhibited lower porosity and water absorption. Research implications: Utilizing waste from ornamental stones, which amounts to millions of tons and is disposed of in landfills or storage facilities, to manufacture agglomerated stones represents a significant contribution to environmental impact reduction, aligning with the principles of ESG (Environmental, Social, and Corporate Governance). Originality/value: The evaluation of the technological properties of artificial agglomerated stones produced from ornamental stone waste is of fundamental importance for the correct and safe application of these sustainable materials in civil construction.
目的:本研究的目的是利用环氧树脂和蓖麻油基聚氨酯,利用商业上被称为“Preto s o Gabriel”的石材废料生产和评估人工结块石板的技术性能。理论框架:观赏石广泛应用于建筑领域,对国家经济具有重要意义。在生产阶段,产生了大量的废物。在生产过程中,从提取和加工过程中产生了大量没有经济价值的废物,在采矿过程中约占产量的40 ~ 60%,在切割阶段约占30 ~ 35%。方法:利用颚式破碎机和陶瓷板磨机对废石进行粉碎,筛选成3个粒径范围,制备人造石板。采用真空振冲压缩法生产板坯。进行了工艺表征试验,包括体积密度、表观孔隙率、吸水率和三点强度试验。结果与结论:用这两种树脂制成的板材可以应用于需要良好抗弯强度的地方。对于有水存在的区域,推荐使用环氧树脂生产的,因为它们具有较低的孔隙率和吸水性。研究意义:利用数百万吨的观赏石废料,在垃圾填埋场或储存设施中进行处理,以制造凝聚石,这对减少环境影响做出了重大贡献,符合ESG(环境,社会和公司治理)的原则。原创性/价值:评价观赏石废料生产的人造石的工艺性能,对这些可持续材料在民用建筑中的正确和安全应用至关重要。

Objective: The problem of poverty requires a social innovation-based assistance strategy that involves various parties or collaboration in solving a social problem. Poverty alleviation policies are not only centered on bureaucratic aspects but are also always human-centered (human-centered design) in defining and formulating innovative policies. This research aims to identify stakeholders in social innovation in order to overcome the impacts of poverty. Theoretical framework: This research uses 6 dimensions of social innovation in analyzing the impact of poverty in Indonesia. Apart from that, this research also explains the role of stakeholders through the Quintuple Helix concept where there is a continuous balance between government and society. Method: This research is a type of qualitative research with 50 research informants who refer to five requirements for selecting informants. Researchers conducted in-depth interviews with social practitioners so that researchers could get more concrete information about the problems that occurred. Results and conclusions: In the Social Exclusion Dynamics dimension, it was found that the Indonesian Government's policies were able to provide accelerated handling that was not trapped in bureaucratic, techno-technical aspects. By making the community work partners or volunteers who are socially active. The Mobilization of Resources dimension is related to the synergy aspect of multi-stakeholder involvement which is able to provide community capacity development, mastery and understanding of technological information so that it can improve the quality of life. In the Satisfaction of Human Needs dimension, pragmatism in the government system often causes a loss of innovation and creativity in exploring local resources in society. In the context of health service policy, it is often not possible to explore the source of the main problems in society. The dimension of empowerment is the creation of knowledge. Knowledge is data and information combined with ability, intuition, experience, ideas, and motivation from competent sources. In the dimension of Change in Social Relations, social innovation is ultimately able to determine permanent changes in the social environment, power, relations between social groups, government, and society, the state and the private sector. These dynamics are related to those displayed in the triangle of vision, intention, development culture, identity, organizational and institutional dynamics. Meanwhile, in the Territorial Specificity dimension, the research results show that funding for poverty alleviation activities is assisted by CSR programs from industry as well as social assistance from various elements of society, such as institutions, individuals, companies, zakat institutions, foundations, volunteers and others. Research implications: This research has implications for the involvement of stakeholders in social innovation in overcoming the impacts of poverty Originality/val

Objective: The study analyzes the phenomenon of discontinuity in the growth of the urban fabric directly related to planning, urbanization and the sustainability of municipal management. The analyzes presented are directed to the case study of Vitória da Conquista, in the State of Bahia, Brazil. Theoretical framework: The study brings theoretical reflections on the issue of discontinuity in the city's urban fabric, correlating it to spatial segregation; public policy; optimization of installed infrastructure; the urban voids generated by real estate speculation, the actions of space transforming agents. Method: The Geographic Information System was used as a methodological instrument, with geoprocessing resources, using orbital data in raster format (satellite images) obtained from the National Institute for Space Research (INPE), and vector cartographic bases available at IBGE. Results and conclusion: The growth of the city of Vitória da Conquista over the years resulted in a morphology with the creation of urban voids, with speculative purposes, where residual spaces were created with discontinuous growth, in a logic that restructures spaces in the urban area. Implications of the research: Access to urban rights or the right to the city of an indivisible nature, guaranteed by the 1988 constitution to all inhabitants of the city, of present and future generations. The equity of living, enjoying and participating in the production of fair, inclusive and sustainable cities. Originality/value: This research has academic value, as it supports public policies and urban planning, with the originality of the discussions presented.

Purpose: Investigate the influence of environmental variables and spatial autocorrelation on aquatic insect communities within the same water flow in Atlantic Forest streams. Theoretical framework: The organisms in lotic environments are influenced by both local and non-local factors, in addition to other processes, which result from the dynamics of the environment. Alterations in these factors can provide evidence regarding the organization of aquatic communities. Given the high sensitivity insect are used in ecosystems quality studies around the world. Method: Sampling campaigns were conducted every three months. A total of twenty-four samples were collected across four campaigns and six collection sites were established along the same stream. In-situ measurements of physical and chemical variables were performed. The environmental quality of the surroundings was assessed using the Habitat Integrity Index. Results and conclusion: No spatial dependence was found between the sampling sites. Closer points no longer exhibited resemblance. For the studied situation, the surrounding and turbidity have a stronger relationship with the biota, acting as environmental filters and suggesting that the organization of is driven by local environmental conditions. Environments that are locally less disturbed are more influential in shaping for aquatic insect communities. Thus, considering the effect of habitats on organisms and recognizing the importance of local conservation efforts for preserving the aquatic biodiversity of the Atlantic Forest biome, we emphasize need for the implementation permanent monitoring programs in hydrographic basins, mainly for the BHRA, and the development of strategies aimed at minimizing the impacts on these environments. Research implications: We affirm the applicability of aquatic insects as valuable indicators for assessing the quality and biodiversity of streams and suggest studies with these organisms as a strategy to support management in freshwater environments. Originality/value: Studies that evaluate water bodies and their surroundings are essential in view of the pressures exerted through the different land uses. The study region deserves attention in view of the implementation of large constructions.
