Vol. 10 No. nº26 (2025): Revista Faculdades do Saber

It is with profound satisfaction and renewed enthusiasm that I present Volume 10, Issue 26 of Revista Faculdades do Saber, a scientific journal that, throughout its trajectory, has been consolidating itself as a space for dialogue among different fields of knowledge, fostering academic production and democratizing access to science. Faithful to its interdisciplinary vocation, the journal reaffirms its commitment to the socio-interactive construction of knowledge, upholding the inseparability of freedom of research, methodological rigor, and social relevance.

In this edition, the cover—conceived by Professor and Architect Liliane Camargo and captured through artistic sensitivity—is the photograph “Branch of Stars” by Paula Josani (Postgraduate in Project Management, FGV). The framing draws the viewer’s gaze close to a cluster of star fruits—stars in formation—and proposes a clear metaphor: knowledge germinates from care, matures through dialogue, and is shared as fruit. The image, serene and precise, pays tribute to the collective effort that builds this edition of the journal and inspires new steps within our academic community.

May this metaphor inspire the reader to transcend disciplinary boundaries. In the simplicity of nature’s transformation—as in life itself—lie the lessons of physics, anthropology, and art: expressions of the same human spirit that seeks to understand, create, illuminate, and transcend. Knowledge, too, is the result of the convergence between technique, sensitivity, and purpose.

In this edition, as we immerse ourselves in articles that challenge paradigms and broaden horizons, may the infinite and transformative beauty of nature in its many dimensions remind us that every great discovery is born anew with each sunrise and becomes life—through curiosity, collaboration, and the poetry that inhabits the scientific gaze.

With special respect and admiration, we record here a tribute to Professor Anderson Marteli, who has guided this journal since its foundation with dedication and intellectual brilliance. His legacy remains a foundation and an inspiration for all of us.

Today, with joy and pride, I take on the editorship of this journal, honored by the trust placed in me. I remain committed to continuing the work built with such care, keeping alive the essence that has always guided Revista Faculdades do Saber: the pursuit of knowledge that transforms.

I wish everyone an excellent reading experience and an inspiring journey through the pages of this new edition
