Abstract

In this first issue of 2016, there were some important events that have marked our historyand our efforts in the consolidation of the field of Food and Nutrition in Brazil as a typicallyinterdisciplinary space.First, we have achieved all the editorial goals that had been set previously: we publish at regularintervals; we publish four issues per year; there are 20 papers in the last issue. Numerically, wereached the level required for indexing in international databases that are considered by themain Brazilian funding agencies as a reference for calculating circulation figures in the field ofscience. This will be the year that we will begin devoting efforts to request the inclusion of ourjournal in these spaces!This step is being made possible, in fact, as a result of the growing presence of researchers ingraduate programs, together with their advisees, as authors of papers in our journal. Today, inthe field of food and nutrition, DEMETRA is the second most frequently sought out Brazilianjournal by graduate researchers in the evaluation area “Nutrition” at CAPES.Moreover, the strong presence of works from other scientific fields, such as Humanities, is clearin the last special issue. This publication consolidates the interdisciplinary character of the journal.All these indicators tell us that it is time to take another important step in our editorial journey:to redefine the scope of papers to be published.
