  •  

    When it comes to the production of electrical energy in the Brazilian Amazon, situations are indicated that strongly differentiate it from other regions of Brazil and that, therefore, require specific ways of dealing with the issue. It is therefore assessed that the social and environmental complexity of the region justifies a multidisciplinary research effort, in which different academic concerns are addressed. This paper presents a concrete research experience in this direction, still in force, based on a partnership between four postgraduate programs at the Federal University of Maranhão. An inequality was found in the capacity to produce technical and academic products between programs and in the limits for establishing dialogues between researchers with very different backgrounds. On the other hand, it was concluded that it is essential to encourage the first steps in this direction, as is in fact being done in the research effort referenced in this paper.
