It presents the debate about the main changes in the higher education policy in Brazil and describes the state of the art of the above-mentioned Program, while considering the main strategies and challenges to its consolidation. Problematizations are compiled from the literature on the theme and documental analysis of materials produced by CAPES, by the Fluminense Federal University and by ABEPSS (Brazilian Association for Research and Education in Social Work), including the political/pedagogical project of the program.
