It is a process of breaking the current scenario, with the intention of a praxis that contributes to a fairer society, with equity.

By presenting a differentiated project, we intended to respond, through the speech of members of the institution, whether the Federal University of Latin American Integration - UNILA could be characterized as an innovative institution.
