Main objective of the Tattarillo Award is to encourage technology students and the scientific community to research themes related to development sustainability in any "South-of-the-World" contexts, where such expression is meant broadly, encompassing any reality where human development and access to resources is limited, independently of geographical location, or reasons (historical, political, economical or natural).
