About RCBC

The Benedito Coscia Scientific Journal (RCBC) is a digital academic publication affiliated with the Instituto de Educação e Pesquisa Job de Brito, based in Jataí, Goiás. Founded in 2026, the journal was born from an institutional commitment to producing and disseminating quality scientific knowledge.

With biannual periodicity and continuous publication flow, RCBC adopts the Open Access model, ensuring that the knowledge produced is freely available to the academic community and the general public.

Submissions are made exclusively through the OJS (Open Journal Systems) platform, the international standard for scientific journal management.

Mission and Scope

RCBC focuses primarily on Education, in interdisciplinary dialogue with Philosophy and Theology. It seeks to promote critical reflection on integral human formation, pedagogical theory and educational practices in contemporary contexts.

Inspired by Franciscan values and the legacy of Dom Benedito Coscia, the journal welcomes research that combines academic rigor with openness to dialogue between different intellectual traditions. It has no rigid confessional orientation, but values the spiritual and humanistic dimension of knowledge.

Only original scientific articles are accepted, submitted to the journal's internal editorial evaluation process.
