The University of Birmingham’s Brazil Institute celebrated its official opening in the presence of His Excellency Mr Antonio Patriota, Brazil Ambassador to the UK.
Building on the work of the Birmingham Brazil Forum, the new Brazil Institute aims to deepen and widen the University’s engagement with Brazil, as well as strengthening the partnership between the UK and Brazil.
Launching the Institute follows the signing of an agreement earlier this year between the University of Birmingham and the Brazilian Ministry of Education. The protocol of intent set out a shared commitment to collaborate more closely through a Brazil Institute at the University.
