UC reinforces cooperation with Brazil

Diário de Coimbra13 September 2026 at 11:00

The University of Coimbra (UC) reinforces cooperation with Brazil through a new agreement with the University of São Paulo. The UC's rectorate received officials from the main Brazilian university, signaling an academic rapprochement between the two institutions.

The meeting also featured the presence of representatives of the Brazilian justice system, broadening the scope of cooperation beyond the university environment. This Brazilian delegation was meeting at the University of Coimbra's rectorate to discuss the partnerships.

The agreement aims to strengthen bilateral relations between Portugal and Brazil in the fields of higher education and justice. This initiative is part of the broader context of strengthening ties between Portuguese and Brazilian institutions.

Why this matters

This inter-institutional cooperation can result in concrete benefits for Portuguese and Brazilian students and researchers, including academic partnerships, legal knowledge exchanges, and joint research opportunities. Strengthening these relations with a strategic partner like Brazil has a direct impact on the internationalization of Portuguese higher education.

The night when Castelo Branco entered the history of Portugal's wonders

The Garden of the Episcopal Palace of Castelo Branco was distinguished as one of the New 7 Wonders of Portugal in the Tourism category, in an announcement made on September 13, 2026 in Sintra. The garden, a National Monument and a singular example of Portuguese baroque, was commissioned by Bishop D. João de Mendonça around 1720 and became public in 1919. The space is divided into four terraces with sculptures of the zodiac signs, the seasons, the continents, and a staircase of kings where the monarchs of the Filipino period appear in reduced dimensions. The victory represents a moment of heritage and tourism affirmation for Castelo Branco and the region, projecting a space that had existed for centuries beyond local borders.
