Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Book Chapter Description
Once Brazil hosted United Nations Conference on Environment and Development in 1992 (UNCED, Rio Earth Summit), as well as Rio+20 Conference, the country has shown an important role in promoting United Nations Post-2015 Development Agenda. Brazilian innovations in terms of public policies are also regarded as contributions to economic, social and environmental dimensions in sustainable development integration. In this context, the Brazilian Ministry of Environment created the Environmental Agenda in Public Administration—‘A3P’—to encourage public managers to incorporate sustainable principles enhancing institutions activities. In terms of sustainability, higher education can introduce new trends in the domains of education, research, and extension. However, understanding the Environmental Agenda in Public Administration requires a more careful analysis of information, stakeholder dynamics, public management and conflict of interest. To illustrate the debate, this chapter presents Cefet/RJ, a centennial higher education institution in Rio de Janeiro and discusses the implementation of its ‘A3P’ sustainable agenda in 2017, 25 years after Rio 92 Earth Summit. Thus, Cefet/RJ Rio+25 integrates teaching, research and extension environmental projects. This scenario represents a set of initiatives regarding the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to assess public governance focusing on higher education. This chapter aims to be useful to those who are interested in governmental and sustainable developmental issues.
