ISER has always been guided by the perception of religion as a fundamental factor of social change and an indispensable variable in the search for better understanding and acting together with Brazilian society. Therefore, its production on the interface of religions with the public space is a central reference for this field of research. It is from this place of reference in the production of knowledge about religion and public space that ISER started, in August 2022, the partnership with Nexo Public Policies, an academic-journalistic platform of free access “which brings the production of some of the main research centers in Brazil and around the world in clear language and innovative formats”. As a partner research center, ISER contributes with unpublished content in different formats every ten days, bringing together contributions from collaborating researchers from several universities and research centers in the country.Learn more: ISER | Nexus Public Policies
