The increase in the vehicle fleet negatively impacts Brazilian municipalities. Understanding how it impacts Alegre, a virtual public survey was held with its licensed drivers in 2019. In 10 years, its fleet of cars and motorcycles grew faster than its stagnant municipal population growth and faster than municipalities almost four times more populous than it. In mid-2019, of about 104 respondents, 90% had cars and 44% had motorcycles, relative percentages above obtained in a similar survey in Londrina, which has 20 times its population. About 86% of interviewees considered the lack of parking to be a problem and 80% believed that limited waiting could improve urban mobility in Alegre if it had affordable prices. The increase in the vehicle fleet in Alegre causes urban mobility problems. However, its population receives the implementation of a limited waiting system well, contributing to the implementation of public management practices. However, implementing limited waiting alone is insufficient; some Brazilian municipalities combined the implementation of the system with awareness-raising and (re)education of drivers and education of children.

Communication in Public Higher Education Institutions (IESP) with distant campuses is compromised by distance. Managing communication in these institutions is important because they are places for knowledge creation. This study sought to discover if there are guidelines that address communication strategies in public institutions. We verified if the Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo (UFES) has adopted any of these strategies, as it has four campuses and almost 30 teaching centers. Communication should be used strategically and value the human factor of an institution. Therefore, some principles were pointed out regarding what communication is, its types, models, theories, and the result of its articulation with universities. In 2020, UFES adhered to the United Nations (UN) 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and began to use communication aimed at the institution’s sustainability. Internal communication is suitable for management, as it values the institutional culture and engagement, contributing to the construction of a cohesive organizational environment oriented towards collective goals, especially when directed at the internal public.

A principal produção científica do curso de graduação em Geologia na Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo (UFES) são os Trabalhos de Conclusão de Curso (TCC) desenvolvidos na disciplina Seminário de Graduação em Geologia ofertada no nono semestre. Este trabalho apresenta resultados de um levantamento estatístico qualitativo-quantitativo sobre os TCC produzidos no intervalo de dez (10) anos. Os TCC foram analisados como material científico arquivado no Departamento de Geologia e como publicações em e-books disponíveis no site do curso. Informações relativas aos TCC e suas publicações foram periodicamente tabuladas e atualizadas. A produção tem padrão irregular, com 79% dos TCC realizados no Espírito Santo, e concentração de trabalhos em alguns temas de estudo. Cerca de 21% foram publicados como capítulos em e-books. É possível aplicar os TCC para obter retorno social, pedagógico, científico e profissional; serão realizados estudos futuros para integrar as informações disponíveis.
