Editorial reflections on collaboration in the development of science, technology, innovation and their publications

Resumo

The development of knowledge has always given rise to possibilities for collaboration, in its various shades. However, the academic, social and economic environments have never been so inviting, to the actions effectively undertaken and, therefore, so promising, as in our days, notably in the basic sciences. The literature in this area has been presenting analytical and critical contributions, which support the state of the art of this knowledge. Thus, they highlight their possibilities for promotion, as well as providing results that are more compatible with the social, human and economic needs of the people (Odell, Dyer & Klett (2023).
