The Workshop on Biosystems Engineering (WEB) is an academic event that stated tacking our internal research and students, focused in to present and discuss the research results of the Biosystems Engineering Master Program (PGEB). Over the years, the event have grown, expanding far over the boundaries of the Federal Fluminense University, bringing close many people and researcher interested in the area of Environmental Sciences. For this 6th edition, bringing invited speakers and lectures from other states. Due to the Worldwide COVID-19 pandemic situation, the event was held on-line been broadcasted on the YouTube platform. This year’s edition main theme was: “Environment and Agriculture: Governance, Research and Practice”, being held from the 04th and 05th November 2020. In total there were 470 enrolled students (graduated and undergraduate), been held: 8 lectures, 5 short courses, 2 round tables (“The challenges of research in the world and in Brazil in the face of current policies” and “Sustainable intensification in agriculture”), all accepted papers were invited to submit an online presentation, available as a playlist as a virtual discussion Forum (60 abstracts accepted). As a reflect of its efforts towards its internationalization we count not only with important researchers brought to discuss within our round tables and lectures but had the opportunity to have a closure speaker Prof. Leonardo Boff, with the lecture: Environment and Dignity. The WEB, as known, had consolidated itself as one of the main scientific events of UFF, even in time of COVID-19 pandemic, integrating students, from graduated, undergraduate or even alumni; as well as Professors from several different academic areas, from UFF and from other institutions worldwide.
