11. Journal History
The journal Research, Society and Development is an electronic, multidisciplinary publication that arose from the need for more critical and collaborative science. Initially, in 2016, a publication was created in the Research Group “Methodologies in Teaching and Learning in Sciences” at the Federal University of Itajubá – UNIFEI, Campus Itabira. Due to the increase in the number of articles, in 2020, the Journal's management began to occur in a more professional manner through CDRR Editors, separating itself from UNIFEI.
