Despite the fact that 61% of the Brazilian population is interested in Science, the Brazilian State does not show any interest in these facts if we analyze the budget cuts that the sector is suffering during the last years. However, the academic and scientific community carries out scientific dissemination actions with the aim of bringing science closer to society. Thus, the Departamento de Ciências e Tecnologías (DCT) of the Universidade Estadual do Sudoeste de Bahia (UESB) has developed the university extension project called Vila da Ciência (in Portuguese), which, in addition to collaborating with Projects in Chemistry, Biology, Mathematics and Physics, offers cycles of conferences that are presented in different schools, mainly public, and private. These are talks presented by students and professors of the UESB postgraduate courses about their research and using a language appropriate to the young people of the institutions that request it. The main focus is oriented towards public schools because it is in them where those responsible for the project noticed the highest rate of rejection of the study of Sciences. In order to democratize the access to scientific and technological knowledge, as well as to bring the University closer to society, one of the most innovative initiatives of the project is the realization of the event called Vila da Ciência which consists of an annual exhibition of the works of the students in the main public square of the city of Jequié, State of Bahia, Brazil.
