Thus, this research aims to investigate how (de)colonial practices can make English language education more inclusive and culturally sensitive, promoting the linguistic empowerment of young people in the quilombola community of Vila Pau d’Arco, in them Agreste region of Alagoas. To this end, scholars such as Walter Mignolo (2017), Maldonado-Torres (2005), and Quijano (2005) will be consulted, who have developed a perspective on Eurocentric knowledge production and its socioeconomic, symbolic, and subjective consequences, as well as Gomes (2018), Carneiro (2023), and Passos and Pinheiro (2021) to address the decolonization of the curriculum and Brazilian epistemicide. Furthermore, studies on language education from the critical, transgressive, and nondisciplinary perspective of contemporary Applied Linguistics (Moita Lopes, 2006) will also be fundamental. This approach engages in social research practices that focus on situations of exclusion and social marginalization (Fabrício, 2006) in order to contribute to improvements in the quality of life of AL research participants (Rojo, 2006). From a methodological perspective, this project will follow the interpretivist paradigm (Moita Lopes, 1994) of qualitative research (Bortoni-Ricardo, 2008), based on action research (Tripp, 2005). Thus, a program of language education practices in English will be developed and delivered in partnership with the Associação dos Quilombolas da Vila Pau d'Arco, based on a decolonial and quilombola education perspective. Based on field diaries, pedagogical records, and other interaction data generated in teaching situations, contingent interpretations will be produced regarding the objectives pursued in this research. Given the effects of structural racism in our country, it is necessary to relate this critical decolonization movement to the pedagogical practices of/in quilombola communities, as well as to analyze the critical potential of these practices. 2026-02-09T00:00:00Z https://ri.ufs.br/jspui/handle/riufs/25513 Título: A responsabilidade civil do doador nas inseminações caseiras Autor(es): Terto, Luana Machado Abstract: This study examines the legal status of filiation in home artificial insemination. In this context, the transformation of the concept of family in Brazilian legislation reflects significant changes in the social, cultural, and legal spheres, especially with regard to filiation and the different forms of family formation. The 1988 Federal Constitution represented a milestone by recognizing the diversity of family configurations, moving away from models that were predominantly biological or based on marriage, and establishing principles such as human dignity, equality among children, and freedom in family planning. As a result, filiation came to be understood in a broader manner, valuing socio-affective bonds and the reproductive autonomy of individuals. Alongside these transformations, new reproductive approaches and methods began to be adopted by society, with home insemination standing out as an informal and unregulated option in comparison with assisted reproduction techniques offered by specialized clinics. This practice, often driven by the high costs associated with artificial insemination and the desire to increase accessibility, raises important legal issues, particularly with regard to the civil registration of the child, the presumption of parenthood within marriage or stable unions, and the requirement of consent from the spouse or partner in cases of heterologous insemination, in light of the provisions issued by the National Council of Justice. Home insemination also raises questions concerning fundamental rights, including human dignity, reproductive autonomy, and freedom in family planning, without disregarding the importance of comprehensive protection for children and adolescents. The absence of specific regulation generates legal uncertainty for both the parents and the donor, especially with respect to the determination of parenthood and the potential legal implications arising from this practice. In this context, the debate over the civil and child support liability of the donor in home insemination emerges. The lack of regulation allows for differing interpretations regarding existing rights and obligations, as well as the limits of the autonomy of the parties involved. Thus, the topic highlights the importance of a critical assessment of the current legal framework, emphasizing the risks of civil liability for the donor and the urgent need for a clearer regulatory approach that reflects contemporary social conditions. 2026-02-26T00:00:00Z https://ri.ufs.br/jspui/handle/riufs/25505 Título: Aspectos da ecologia básica do Guigó-da-caatinga (Callicebus Barbarabrownae Hershkovitz, 1990) em fragmentos de Caatinga, Nordeste do Brasil Autor(es): Barreto, Hamilton Ferreira Abstract: The blond titi monkey (C. barbarabrownae), classified as Critically Endangered (CR) by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), is the only primate endemic to the Caatinga biome. Despite its high threat status and endemism, there are still significant knowledge gaps regarding the species. With this in mind, this study was developed to expand knowledge about its biology and ecology. The first chapter addresses acoustic ecology, with the main objective of describing the species’ vocalization patterns and their daily, seasonal, and annual variations, in association with resource availability. Over two years (10 days per month), we collected acoustic data using autonomous recorders in two forest fragments of different sizes. We recorded 242 independent vocalization events in 193 samples, 28 in the smaller fragment (7 ha) and 214 in the larger fragment (70 ha). Of these, 81% were recorded in the morning period, with the highest frequency at 08:00. The month with the lowest number of records was October 2021 and the highest was June 2022. Vocalization frequency showed significant differences between morning and afternoon periods, times of day, months of the year, fragments, and seasons. No significant relationship was found between vocalization frequency and the availability of ripe fruits, suggesting that ripe fruits may influence vocalization frequency. The second chapter investigates the structure and composition of trees in fragments where the species occurs, with the main objective of characterizing the habitat in five fragments and examining its relationship with species density in these locations. Data were collected at five sites in the municipalities of Euclides da Cunha, Jacobina, Jeremoabo, and Lamarão (Bahia State), and Monte Alegre de Sergipe (Sergipe State). We sampled 200 trees in five transects per fragment (point-centered quarter method), selecting individuals with diameter at breast height (DBH) > 10 cm. For each tree, we identified the species and measured DBH, tree height (TH), distance to the previous tree (DPT), and crown cover (CC). Fabaceae was the most abundant family in all areas, except in Jacobina, where Myrtaceae predominated. The areas differed in diversity (H’), ranging from 2.27 to 3.35. Significant differences among areas were also found for TH, DPT, and CC, but not for DBH. This study represents the first approach to identifying habitat factors and their relationship with ecological aspects of C. barbarabrownae, highlighting its response to fruit availability as well as its occurrence in structurally heterogeneous yet compositionally more homogeneous areas. 2025-08-26T00:00:00Z https://ri.ufs.br/jspui/handle/riufs/25501 Título: Reestruturação organizacional da Coordenadoria de Controle Interno do Tribunal de Contas do Estado de Sergipe: possíveis caminhos para melhora da eficiência administrativa Autor(es): Campos, Sumaia Silva Abstract: Context: Internal control is an essential instrument for strengthening public governance, transparency, and administrative efficiency. Within the scope of Courts of Accounts, its institutionalization represents a strategic milestone for improving management and accountability. The Court of Accounts of the State of Sergipe (TCE-SE), although it has an Internal Control Coordination Unit, still faces structural and regulatory challenges to fully comply with the guidelines of ATRICON Resolution No. 04/2014 and the Performance Measurement Framework for Courts of Accounts (MMD-TC). Objective: The study aimed to propose guidelines to improve the organizational structure of the Internal Control Coordination Office of the Court of Accounts of the State of Sergipe, in light of ATRICON guidelines, COSO frameworks, and a comparative analysis with other Courts of Accounts, in order to enhance the effectiveness of the Internal Control System. Methodology: The research was characterized as a qualitative case study, of an applied nature, with a propositional purpose. The evidence used was exclusively secondary, obtained through documentary and comparative analysis of legislation, resolutions, institutional regulations, and reports from the Performance Measurement Framework for Courts of Accounts (MMD-TC).The methodological procedure involved the critical examination and comparison between the structures and regulations of the TCE-SE and other Courts of Accounts, in order to identify gaps, convergences, and best practices that would support the proposed organizational restructuring. Main Results: The research resulted in an organizational restructuring model for the Internal Control Coordination Unit of the TCE-SE that favors the institutionalization of the Internal Control System, strengthens organizational governance, and contributes to the improvement of administrative efficiency. Relevance and Originality: The relevance of the study lies in the need to modernize and strengthen internal control in Courts of Accounts, consolidating the TCE-SE as a reference for good institutional practices. The originality lies in proposing a specific organizational structure applicable to the reality of the Court, with the potential for replication in other Courts of Accounts. Theoretical, Methodological, and Management Contributions: Theoretically, the study expands the discussion on organizational governance and internal control in public administration; methodologically, it adopts an applied case study, which allows for in-depth and comparative analysis of organizational models; and, in terms of management, it offers a practical restructuring proposal capable of improving processes, strengthening accountability, and optimizing institutional performance. Social contributions: By proposing improvements in the organizational structure and the institutionalization of internal control, the work aims to strengthen governance and public transparency, promoting a more efficient, reliable, and aligned administration with the collective interest. 2026-06-19T00:00:00Z
