This year’s Brazil Week, an annual event series organised by the King's Brazil Institute, will be led by the Institute’s new Director Dr Vinicius De Carvalho. Although the COVID-19 pandemic necessitates an all-online programme, Dr De Carvalho stressed the Institute’s continued commitment to running these important events:
Brazil week is always a celebration, not just of Brazilian research and ideas, but also the Brazilian community of staff and students at King’s. We know this year has been difficult for everyone both in the UK and Brazil – we hope this week offers up a chance to reflect on the challenges Brazil faces, but also to celebrate the amazing research conducted by our colleagues.– Dr Vinicius De Carvalho
