Reply to comment by latinometrics in [OC] Research Funding vs Human Development: a country's R&D spending correlates with its societal well-being by latinometrics
>Brazil’s R&D expenditure takes the form of research done in world-renowned public universities such as the University of São Paulo or the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro. It can also be seen in the consistent modernization of Brazil’s armed forces and the scientific and medical breakthroughs propelled by government-funded private companies. From AI and vaccine development to sustainable agriculture and renewable energy research, Brazilians are at the forefront of regional innovation.
Since Michel Temer's and then Bolsonaro's government.. this is not a reality anymore.

what year was this graph made and from what years does the data for it comes from?
It's 2023.. I'm pretty sure the data used in this graph is very different now, after Temer and Bolsonaro's governments. Both cut A LOT of R&D investments in areas as health, education, academic research, technology and industrialization in general.
