It is primarily student-led, with at least one tenured faculty member serving as the director and primary liaison.

The theme will be explored through three tracks focused on the city of Macapá, Amapá: Creative processes in the city; Perception and memory of the city; and Sustainability and self-management practices. For this edition, SAU is accepting submissions of academic work in three distinct categories: scientific articles, graphic works (physical models, photography, video, and sketchbooks), and posters. These will subsequently be published in the event proceedings. Over the course of the four-day event, the organizers aim to bring together students, faculty, researchers, and professionals to discuss the theme through lectures, roundtable discussions, workshops, and networking opportunities.
