The release of the two volumes in December follows the successful completion of the migration to the new electronic address. The strategy ensured that both editions were already published with DOI registration and hosted in the new environment, which offers greater security, credibility and strengthens the institutional link of the publication with the Salesian brand.<\/p>\n
Progress in academic research <\/strong><\/p>\n The great strength of this double publication is its indexing via DOI. From now on, all published articles \u2013 both in edition v.3, n.2 and v.4, n.1 \u2013 will have this identifier, which functions as a \u201ccode\u201d for digital documents, ensuring that the work is found and cited correctly anywhere in the world.<\/p>\n For Prof. Melissa de Freitas Cordeiro Silva, Coordinator of Research and Scientific Start-up at UniSales, this is a historic step for the university centre’s academic output: \u2018This is a very important edition for us. The implementation of the DOI increases the visibility of authors and is a fundamental step towards indexing and better evaluation of the journal in the \u201cQualis CAPES\u201d system,\u2019 she explained, emphasising that the initiative enhances the work of researchers and broadens the reach of the knowledge generated on campus.<\/p>\n Recognition and social impact<\/strong><\/p>\n The journal’s editorial evolution reflects UniSales’ commitment to academic excellence. The university’s Rector, Geraldo Adair da Silva, celebrated the milestone as a fundamental step towards the internationalisation of teaching: \u2018The transition to the official domain and, in particular, the implementation of the DOI, raise the level of our scientific production, ensuring international recognition,\u2019 said the Rector.<\/p>\n The impact of the publication goes beyond the boundaries of the academic world. According to the Vice-Rector for Academic Affairs, Prof. Dr. Alexandre Cardoso Aranzedo, the dissemination of these works is essential for the development of the community. He considered the launch a significant achievement, as the dissemination of scientific output \u2018will contribute to the implementation of reflections and good practices within the Salesian community and society in general.\u2019<\/p>\n About UniSales<\/strong><\/p>\n UniSales has embarked on a path of continuous modernisation of its teaching methods, based on the best global trends in higher education. Inspired by Don Bosco’s principle of \u2018learning to learn\u2019, the Salesian University Centre promotes, through teaching, research and community engagement, an active relationship of proximity to the labour market and a commitment to social transformation.<\/p>\n
