The entourage of the Master's Program in Human Development at the University of Taubaté was composed by the coordinator of the program, four professors, two master's students and a master graduated from the program. This group participated by presenting research papers at three thematic tables at the IV International Congress of the Acinnet Network, whose theme was: internationalization, entrepreneurship, employability and sustainability. The congress was held in May 2018, in the city of Porto, Portugal, and was hosted by the Polytechnic Institute of Porto.
