Aims and scope

Revista UFG (Universidade Federal de Goiás' Journal) publishes works that express the relationship between extension, research and teaching. The focus of the Journal is on university extension activities (university + community) and culture as a condition for publication.

Revista UFG considers extension as an action carried out with the community outside the Institution of Higher Education by integrating knowledge arising from teaching and research, considering the needs of the public with the objective of interacting and developing social reality.

The evaluation is carried out by the double-blind system of Ad Hoc reviewers and members of the Scientific Editorial Board. In case of discrepancy or divergence, a third reviewer will be consulted. Published texts express opinions, results and assumptions of the sole responsibility of their authors.

In the case of submitted works that do not comply with the Guidelines for filling the author profile at the time of submission and do not include the Supplementary Document, according to the model, the main author will be communicated and the submission will be deleted, so that the authors can resubmit with the appropriate corrections.
