Inserção Social

Programa de Pós-Graduação Stricto Sensu em Comunicação

National insertion: networks, associations and partnerships

UNIP's Graduate Program in Communication understands the national insertion of its professors as a strategic part of its academic and social performance. The diversity and scope of the activities carried out reflects the Program's commitment to producing knowledge that is engaged with the contemporary challenges facing Brazilian society.

In this sense, the professors actively participate in national research networks, scientific associations and research promotion councils. They also collaborate with public sector bodies, the business sector and the third sector, promoting actions with a social impact and contributing to the formulation of public policies, social technologies and cultural products.

In addition, the professors act as editors or members of editorial boards of scientific journals and coordinate prominent events in the field of Communication, strengthening the role of the Program as a training agent and articulator in the national academic scene.

Below, we present the set of initiatives and participations carried out by Program professors in the 2021-2024 quadrennium, demonstrating the relevance and breadth of PPGCOM-UNIP's national insertion.

Social technology with incremental improvement in the process of sentence remission through reading to improve reincarceration rates in the Capital's Women's Penitentiary. The project seeks to trigger memories through the reading of selected works in order to recover emotional bonds and favor the reintegration process. The pilot project led to discussions for implementation in the São Paulo Military Penitentiary. The expectation is that the technology will be disseminated and impact the state's prison population.

PPG students led by Prof. Carla Montuori developed actions in response to requests from SECOM - Federal Government to comply with UNESCO guidelines related to combating disinformation and promoting digital and social literacy.

Thus, the activities are linked to the Brazilian Media Education Strategy as part of the research of the teacher and her students, with themes such as bullying, cyberbullying, racial literacy and digital security. On 31/10/2024, student Elisa Greco gave a lecture entitled “Bullying and Cyberbullying: Building an Environment of Respect and Healthy Coexistence” at the Professor José Heitor Carusi School in São Paulo. The activity was attended by 60 secondary school students, addressing the impacts of bullying in the school and digital environment and the role of young people in preventing and combating this practice. Vânia Márcia de Paula led the round table discussion “What can you do for the anti-racist struggle?” at IFSudeste in Juiz de Fora. The meeting encouraged reflections on racial communication on social networks and the importance of racial literacy among young people, promoting a space for open and inclusive dialog. Researcher and member of the project, Luciana Janizello, led activities on October 29, with the lecture “Adolescente Consciente: Navegando com Segurança no Mundo Digital” (Conscious Teenager: Navigating Safely in the Digital World), at E.
