- Governance in sports organizations: a gender approachPublication . Pereira, Antonino; Mendes, Francisco; Figueiredo, AbelOrganizations, whether national or international, whatever their object and objective, are organized according to legal precepts that generally reflect the community's value frameworks. The empowerment of women in a society, that tends to be patriarchal has been a slow process, despite moving towards the equality advocated by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The world of sports is neither an exception nor an isolated island; it has been and is organized according to the practices of the moment in history in which it takes place. The sporting phenomenon certainly finds its maximum exponent in the Olympic Games, where many of the idiosyncrasies of the modern world are materialized.
- Implementation of educational adaptations.Publication . Pereira, Antonino; Figueiredo, Abel; Mendes, Francisco; Leiva-Arcas, Alejandro; Maciá-Andreu, M. J.; Raquel Vaquero-Cristóbal; Delgado Nadal, Maria; Meroño, LourdesMany research studies have highlighted the need to promote inclusive policies and practices for the benefit of all students. However, despite the existence of legislation on equal educational opportunities, many higher education institutions are still not prepared to respond to the needs of students with disabilities, to promote their inclusion and personal development. Among the barriers that these people must face, we find physical barriers, negative attitudes from some teachers, and the use of teaching methodologies that do not favour inclusion. Faced with such constraints, we argue that higher education institutions should implement policies and practices that provide a differentiated pedagogy that allows for the use of strategies and methodologies that result in an effectively inclusive education. The three fundamental axes of the intervention, for the promotion of equality and success in higher education, will have to be found at the institutional level, in educators (especially in their training), and in the teaching-learning process.

- Innovation and Creativity in Extension Projects: The Role of Art in UTFPR Engineering CoursesPublication . Auzani, Adriana Santos; Leonido, Levi; Pereira, Antonino; Morgado, Elsa GabrielTraining the potentially creative engineer is a demand on the job market and a challenge for higher education institutions. From a case study and respective qualitative approach, we investigate the role of art in the creative process, in engineering courses at the Federal Technological University of Paraná (UTFPR), as a factor of technological innovation. Ten students have participated in the study (n = 5 Computer Engineering and n = 5 Mechanical Engineering); 10 teachers (n = 5 Computing and n = 5 Mechanics); Dean of UTFPR (n = 1) and entrepreneurs/employers (n = 4). In the analysis and discussion of results, based on semi-structured interviews, we have chosen Content Analysis and Moscovici's Theory of Social Representations (1978). Among the main conclusions, we highlight the valorization of creative abilities, of interpersonal/communicative relationship, fundamental competences in the formation of the engineer and that the role of art in engineering is to enhance creativity and constitute it as a factor of technological innovation. We add to the technological approach the premises and conceptual matrix related to lifelong education and social responsibility in the framework of contemporary education and the resulting sustainable development.
