| dc.description.abstract | This chapter provides a brief overview of Brazil’s national and regional policy initiatives and financial incentives that support collaboration between higher education institutions and society. We discuss two examples of higher education institutions–the University of São Paulo (USP) and the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ)–and highlight the different structures that have emerged through ‘incubators’ meant to stimulate innovation and entrepreneurial activities. Government support for the incubator model has been increasing at the federal, state and local levels. The national social mobilizing network COEP and the community-based organization CEPAGRO are also featured in this study as examples of successful civic-led partnership research with higher education institutions (HEIs). The information presented in this chapter was collected through documents and websites, in addition to in-depth interviews with key informants at each of the institutions/organizations. | |
