The partnership with the Judicial School of the state of Acre, under the management of director Elcio Mendes, which enabled the off-site master's degree, held by the Federal University of the state of Tocantins through Esmat, is an example of the commitment to the professional development of civil servers. I am a witness to her idealism and hard work to advance the Judiciary, always at the forefront of new technologies, such as generative artificial intelligence. The vocation of the Judiciary of the Northern Region for institutional and scientific progress and for the aggregation of social justice, seeking a better future for all, is remarkable.
