The Nucleus of Research in Engineering, Science and Sustainability of Semiarid (NUPECS) works in rural area of the city Caiçara
do Rio do Vento in Rio Grande do Norte State, Northeast Region, Brazil. The
name of the city means The Fisher of the River of Wind. NUPECS is located 6 km in an entrance in the
BR 304, 100 km from the capital Natal. On site there is supporting
infrastructure as an auditorium, cafeteria and accommodation, working as also a
hostel.
The Nucleus of Research in Engineering, Science and Sustainability of Semiarid (NUPECS) is a project that aims to be a
space for the development of sustainability research aimed at living with
climate change in semi-arid Northeast.
The approach to the Sertão region involves organizations and
researchers to identify what can be searched in order to promote greater
environmental, economic and social sustainability in the backcountry.
In the field of engineering, we seek to support the adaptation
along with severe weather phenomena and adverse climate change.
Some projects under development in NUPECS are:
- House with PET bottles;
- House with glass bottles;
- Center for Education and Sustainable Culture;
- Experiment in Organic Architecture;
-Museum Sustainability of Semi-arid;
- Technologies of water storage;
- Sustainable Technologies in the layout of physical space;
- Technologies to combat erosion;
- Eagle Observatory;
- The Mars Habitat.
All these topics are of great importance of learning for
students, researchers and teachers who have an interest in Sustainability theme.
What is observed in NUPECS brings learning in the areas of
SUSTAINABILITY, EDUCATION, SOCIAL TECHNOLOGIES, RECYCLING, CONSTRUCTION,
ARCHITECTURE AND RURAL AND ECOLOGIC TOURISM.
