Purpose: This study analyzes the competencies toward sustainability in hotel facilities in order to identify the level of implementation of sustainability practices, as well as individual competencies for sustainability in the hospitality companies.Design/methodology/approach: Interviews and a survey with hotel employees were conducted in two important touristic Brazilian cities, Florianopolis, and Rio de Janeiro, considering the TBL (triple bottom line) dimensions. The data were analyzed with content analysis and descriptive statistics and conjoint analysis.Findings: Preventive competencies in the companies' management were identified. The research also revealed that competencies for sustainability are fairly present in the hospitality context yet, which demonstrates the urgency to discuss the theme in both academic and business practices.Research limitations/implications: The access to the hotel managers impaired the performing of a robust statistical analysis; the study provided new insights about the topics investigated and generated information for the theoretical framework about competencies for sustainability.Practical implications: The research results emphasized the need for the hotel industry to invest in sustainable strategies to meet its target audience, but also to raise the level of its staff and reduce costs in the long term, offering benefits to society, the environment, and, to their businesses.Social implications: The research socially contributes through promoting discussion on sustainability, which is one of the most challenging and relevant issues for society. Besides, it can assist the diffusion of the competencies for sustainability in the hotel industry, as an attempt to decrease their negative externalities on the environment and primary audiences.Originality/value: It was identified a distance between practice and the triple bottom line concept, which is linked only to environmental practices. Besides, it was found limited knowledge about the concepts of competencies in the companies.

Objective: To analyze the actions of Cooperatives in relation to the SDGs in the context of the COVID-19 Pandemic. Theoretical framework: For a better understanding of the research theme in question, the themes Agenda 2030, Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and Cooperativism will be briefly substantiated. Method: The study consisted of a descriptive and quantitative research, with the application of an online questionnaire, via Google Forms, answered from November 2021 to February 2022 by 16 representatives of the Cooperatives. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and content analysis. Results and conclusion: The results pointed to the maintenance of partnerships with other companies/cooperatives and changes in the production chain; increase in actions related to the health of employees, and reduction of funding for actions or projects and development of new products/services; low commitment of cooperatives in relation to the SDGs; male predominance in leadership positions, except in the health sector; importance of acting in the market applying cooperative principles and values, complying with legislation; making partnerships and listening to the demands of society. Research implications: contributes to the understanding of what cooperatives consider important, in addition to drawing the attention of cooperatives to actively participate in achieving the goals of the SDGs. Originality/value: contributes towards linking the SDGs to the Cooperatives, with their principles and values, highlighting their importance for the population and the region where they operate, identifying the actions carried out by them regarding the SDGs in times of the COVID-19 pandemic, after all, the SDGs must be worked on by governments, organizations and the population together. Keywords: Sustainable Development; Agenda 2030; SDGs; Cooperatives.

São diversos os benefícios da utilização de indicadores e métricas de sustentabilidade organizacional,e referem-se à possível antecipação de condições e tendências, fornecimento de avisos de possíveis ocorrências e situações que evitem danos aos aspectos econômico, social e ambiental e auxílio nos processos de gestão. O objetivo deste estudo foi analisar as métricas de sustentabilidade organizacional, identificadas na literatura acadêmica nos últimos cinco anos. Seguindo a metodologia PRISMA, foram relacionadas sete pesquisas relevantes e enquadradas nos critérios de seleção. As principais contribuições, por meio da revisão sistemática, apontaram para estudos compostos de diferentes aspectos (empresas, cidades, regiões) ligados à sustentabilidade. Foram diversas métricas identificadas, algumas focando mais aspectos sociais da população e ou funcionários e outras mais os aspectos ambientais e seus impactos na sociedade e nas organizações. As limitações do estudo são decorrentes do método escolhido que considerou os últimos cinco anos na base Scopus e artigos completos em inglês.

Em um regime totalmente masculinizado e simbolizado pela força de trabalho do homem, a presença feminina nos batalhões consegue evidenciar um princípio de militarismo, onde prevalece não apenas a força física característica e atribuído aos homens, mas sim atributos individuais como: coragem, dedicação e isso se traduzem em competências e habilidades que podem ser encontrados também na mulher. O objetivo principal deste estudo foi analisar as relações de gênero no contexto de trabalho das policiais militares de um Batalhão da Polícia Militar (BPM). Foi utilizada a metodologia de estudo de caso qualitativo, sendo que foi realizado entrevistas, com roteiro semiestruturado, com oito mulheres policiais e o responsável pelo comando do batalhão. Foi possível concluir que, o trabalho militar antes estereotipado como lugar de homens, vem tendo mudanças consideráveis, desde a década de 1990. Foi possível observar ainda que em um universo de 19,5 mil policiais em todo o Paraná, o número de mulheres ainda é baixo, no entanto pode ser percebido com base nas entrevistas das mulheres que há muito empenho e dedicação, onde o ingresso dessas se deu tardiamente na profissão de policial militar.

This paper outlines a significant research gap on sustainable cities: the need for more comprehensive and strategic frameworks for managing sustainable cities, particularly those integrating interdisciplinary elements, dimensions, and global trends. The proposed framework delineates sustainable cities’ elements, dimensions, and trends based on ISO 37120, incorporating pillars linked to the triple bottom line and the Sustainable Development Goals 30 (SDGs). This study suggests specific research agendas, emphasizing theoretical and practical implementation within urban contexts. The methodological approach involved both bibliometric and content analysis techniques, using IRA-MUTEQ software 0.8 Alpha 7. This enabled the identification of key analytical categories and leading authors, with categories derived from lexical forms, similarity analysis, correspondence factor analysis (CFA), and descending hierarchical classification (DHC). Notably, the terms ‘ISO’ and ‘37120’ did not emerge as prominent lexical forms in the IRAMUTEQ results, despite their frequent mentions in the analyzed studies.

This paper presents a bibliometric study about the sustainable development goals (SDGs) in higher education. The main objective of this article is to develop a systematic review of the literature using the PRISMA method on SDGs and higher education. The research problem involved: what results and conclusions stand out in recent studies on SDGs in higher education? The methodology used the PRISMA method, where 24 relevant articles were selected and framed in the inclusion criteria. As a result of the analyses, it was observed that although there is a significant number of studies on the SDGs in universities, the theme still lacks more studies and especially policies that enable the construction of knowledge and practical actions aimed at fulfilling the 2030 agenda. In addition, the study concludedthat university extension and internal policies of universities can contribute significantly to the advancement in the fulfillment of the 2030 Agenda and in scientific research in the area. Este estudo apresenta um estudo bibliométrico acerca dos objetivos de desenvolvimento sustentável (ODS) no ensino superior. O objetivo principal desse artigo é desenvolver uma revisão sistemática da literatura pelo método PRISMA sobre ODS e o ensino superior. O problema de pesquisa envolveu: quais resultados e conclusões destacam-se nos estudos recentes sobre ODS no ensino superior? A metodologia utilizou-se do método PRISMA, onde foram selecionados 24 artigos relevantes e enquadradas nos critérios de elegibilidade e de inclusão. Como resultados das análises, observou-se que embora encontre-se um número significativo de estudos frente aos ODS nas universidades, a temática ainda carece de mais estudos e principalmente de políticas que possibilitem a construção de saberes e ações práticas voltadas para o cumprimento da agenda 2030. Ademais, o estudo concluiu que a extensão universitária e políticas internas das universidades podem contribuir significativamente com o avanço no cumprimento da Agenda 2030 e nas pesquisas científicas na área.
