Governance, as a broad concept, acquires specific contours when applied to community
contexts, in which the participation of multiple actors becomes relevant to the formulation of
policies and practices aimed at meeting local demands. This research aimed to analyze the
governance structure of the Agrovila Amazonino Mendes Riverine Community, located in a
Sustainable Development Reserve in the municipality of Manaus, Amazonas, and its
relationship with residents' quality of life. The study was approved by the Research Ethics
Committee of the University of the State of Amazonas (CAAE: 89246425.1.0000.5016) and
received consent from the Municipal Secretariat of Environment and Sustainability and the
Agrovila Amazonino Mendes Community Association. The Governance Analytical
Framework (GAF), proposed by Hufty (2011), was adopted as the analytical framework, within
a cross-sectional mixed-methods design that articulated qualitative and quantitative
components. In the qualitative stage, 13 semi-structured interviews were conducted with key
actors, along with a non-participant observation of the community's General Assembly. In the
quantitative stage, the WHOQOL-BREF instrument, developed by the World Health
Organization, was applied in a census survey of 102 residents, complemented by a
socioeconomic questionnaire. The results revealed an asymmetric polycentric community
arrangement, in which the multiplicity of actors and decision-making spaces coexists with the
functional concentration of intermediation around the presidency of the Community
Association. Three structuring patterns of this arrangement were identified: asymmetric
mediation exercised by the presidency, as the sole link between the community and external
actors; the functional emptying of the General Assembly, partially compensated by emerging
informal spaces, such as the WhatsApp group and the president's home; and a psychosocial
resilience that sustains the well-being domains least dependent on public services and material
conditions. Regarding the WHOQOL-BREF scores, the Environment domain presented the
worst result (59.41), associated with the normative restrictions imposed on residents' productive
activities, while the Psychological (71.77) and Social Relationships (71.16) domains recorded
the highest scores, sustained by everyday reciprocity networks and a territorially rooted riverine
identity, which operate relatively independently of formal governance processes. The
governance arrangement identified, although functionally operant, presents structural fragility
resulting from dependence on a single strategic actor, and the normative restrictions of the
conservation unit, when not accompanied by a corresponding offer of sustainable development
alternatives, constitute a key determinant with measurable effects on the well-being of riverine
residents.
A política pública do programa prioritário de bioeconomia do CAPDA: instrumento de sustentabilidade ambiental e desenvolvimento na Amazônia Legal
(Universidade do Estado do Amazonas, 2026-05-08) Oliveira, Sarah Benezar Cândido de; Norte, Naira Neila Batista de Oliveira; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5167853522261560; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8153683122679261; Souza, Alcian Pereira de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7664156521894923; Norte Filho, Antônio Ferreira do; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7979639512744678
This dissertation analyzes the Priority Bioeconomy Program (PPBio), established by the
Amazon Research and Development Activities Committee (CAPDA) and modified by Law
No. 13,674/2018, investigating its effectiveness as an instrument to promote sustainable
development in the Western Amazon. A qualitative methodology is adopted, with a
descriptive and analytical approach, based on literature review, document analysis, and the
study of emblematic cases. The theoretical framework articulates public policies (Bucci),
principles of Environmental Law (Ramos Júnior and Souza), sustainable development
(Sachs), mission-oriented innovation policies (Mazzucato), and public environmental
governance (Norte). The paper examines the Manaus Free Trade Zone Informatics Law (Law
No. 8,387/1991) and its amendments, which consolidate CAPDA as the governance body for
R&D investments. The results show that, between 2019 and 2023, the PPBio supported 25
technology-based companies, executed 56 regional initiatives, strengthened 17 productive
chains, generated 456 jobs, trained over 10,000 professionals, mobilized R$ 132 million,
contributed to the reduction of 300 tons of CO2, and supported the preservation of 776
thousand hectares of forest. The analysis of five emblematic projects illustrates the translation
of R&D resources into technological innovations, social inclusion, and environmental
conservation. Structural governance challenges are identified across four levels: normative,
managerial, representational, and environmental. The conclusion is that the PPBio shows
consistent evidence of effectiveness, representing an institutional innovation that transforms
policy centered on fiscal incentives into a mission-oriented policy aligned with the
Sustainable Development Goals. To consolidate itself as a State policy, it requires
advancements in governance: a legal basis in federal law, equal composition with the
participation of traditional communities, professionalization of management, and binding
environmental criteria. The paper presents 10 recommendations and proposes an agenda for
future research, contributing to the consolidation of the field of studies on institutionalized
bioeconomy and demonstrating that the PPBio constitutes a legal-institutional model that
integrates economic development, social justice, and environmental sustainability in the
Amazon.

(Universidade do Estado do Amazonas, 2026-09-08) Oliveira, Beatriz Falcão de; Bezerra, Cynara Carmo; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5843265491876998; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5754997735393400; Bezerra, Cynara Carmo; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5843265491876998; Amoêdo, Francisca Keila Freitas; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2195704246610177; Silva, Fernanda Priscila Alves da; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8974793810131720
This study aimed to produce educational kits from alternative resources, intending to assist teachers in the teaching of Science and Biology in Elementary and High School, promoting a more interactive and meaningful learning. The research was conducted in three public schools in the municipality of Parintins/AM and is characterized as having a quanti-qualitative approach (mixed methods). The quantitative dimension involved the application of pre-tests and post
tests, allowing for a comparative analysis of the accuracy rates before and after the educational intervention. The qualitative dimension occurred through classroom observation, field diary records, and analysis of students' perceptions. The study involved 8th and 9th grade classes of Elementary School and 2nd year of High School, being developed in stages that included the application of questionnaires with teachers, content selection, script production, preparation and application of the educational kits, and analysis of the results. The data showed an increase in student participation, greater interest in the classes, improvement in content comprehension, and consequently, improvement in the bimonthly grades of the studied curricular component. It is concluded that educational kits constitute an effective, accessible, and adaptable tool, contributing to meaningful learning in the teaching of Science and Biology. As an additional
product of the research, an educational e-book was developed containing guidance, methodological procedure scripts for the production of educational kits, using alternative materials, for the teaching of Science and Biology.
Ecologia do tracajá (Podocnemis unifilis) em uma lagoa urbana impactada no município de Parintins, Amazonas
(Universidade do Estado do Amazonas, 2026-09-08) Oliveira, Andressa Maria Viana de; Silva, Adailton Moreira da; http://lattes.cnpq.br/9899572378161625; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6943923724987748; Silva, Adailton Moreira da; http://lattes.cnpq.br/9899572378161625; Trindade, Dilcindo Barros; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0948121178402531; Galúcio, Kleyciane de Souza; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5058525589001085
The yellow-spotted river turtle (Podocnemis unifilis) is a freshwater turtle widely distributed throughout the Amazon region and plays an important ecological role in aquatic ecosystems. This study aimed to analyze the basking,swimming, and resting behaviors of yellow-spotted river turtles in an urban lagoon, relating these behaviors to environmental characteristics and human presence. The research was conducted through direct observation of individuals and the environmental conditions of the study area. The results showed that basking occurred mainly between 11:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m., while swimming was more frequent in the early morning and late afternoon. Resting behavior was observed during periods of lower human activity. Solid waste, extensive vegetation cover, and the presence of other species, such as caimans and herons, were also recorded. The study found that the turtles preferentially used quieter areas with greater vegetation cover, avoiding locations with intense human circulation. The results highlight the importance of conserving urban aquatic environments for maintaining local biodiversity.
Tecnologia e sustentabilidade: a inserção dos carros elétricos no contexto jurídico e ambiental brasileiro.
(Universidade do Estado do Amazonas, 2026-09-08) Xavier, Vitor Luiza Maia da Silva; Souza, Alcian Pereira de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7664156521894923; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1648784430040645; Lima, Neuton Alves de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5190251318187601; Seixas, Bernardo Silva de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2236095085225087
This dissertation analyzed the integration of electric cars within the Brazilian legal and
environmental context, aiming to verify the extent to which vehicle electrification contributes
to the reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in Brazil, compared to combustion
engine vehicles, as well as examining the role of taxation, especially the Vehicle Property Tax
(IPVA), as an instrument for inducing environmental public policies. A qualitative
methodology was adopted, based on the deductive method, through bibliographic and
documentary research, involving the analysis of the constitutional, infraconstitutional, and
international framework related to environmental protection, climate change, and sustainable
mobility, in addition to a review of technical studies on emissions in the life cycle of vehicles.
The results indicated that vehicle electrification, in the Brazilian context, presents significant
potential for emission reduction, especially due to the country's predominantly renewable
electricity matrix, although it does not constitute an isolated solution to the environmental
challenges of the transportation sector. It was also found that states have been using the IPVA
(Vehicle Property Tax) in its extra-fiscal dimension, through exemptions and reduced rates, as
a mechanism to encourage the adoption of electric vehicles, demonstrating the compatibility
between taxation and environmental protection, in accordance with Article 225 of the Federal
Constitution and the principle of environmental preservation within the National Tax System.
However, it was found that such incentives, although relevant, are not sufficient, in isolation,
to promote the mass adoption of electromobility, being dependent on structural, economic and
technological factors, such as the cost of vehicles, charging infrastructure, industrial
development and the challenges related to batteries, especially regarding their production,
durability and disposal. It is concluded that vehicle electrification constitutes a relevant
instrument in mitigating climate change, provided it is integrated into a broader set of public
policies, and the environmental effects throughout the entire life cycle of this technology
should also be considered.
