“My experience of studying at the King’s Brazil Institute was excellent. I especially enjoyed the interdisciplinary aspect of the course. I had the opportunity to study a broad variety of Brazilian society including politics, cinema, history and environmental issues. This breadth of topics allowed a deeper and more comprehensive understanding of Brazil in the twenty-first century.

14 Brazil Institute Ten Year Annual Review 15 “One of the reasons I chose King’s College London was that it had the Brazil Institute. I thought the Institute would promote an interesting environment for studies about Brazil in the UK, and I could confirm this assumption when I got involved in some of their activities. I also had the opportunity to do an internship in the Brail Institute, which was a valuable experience that helped me to understand their work developing Brazilian Studies and research, mobilizing a network of other Brazil- related institutions and fostering cultural events. The internship was a relevant contribution to my postgraduate research as well.

In the footsteops.... Excursion to

This project consists of an annual study excursion to Italy, to the exact areas where Brazilians were stationed and fought during WWII, allowing participants to talk to survivors and get to know the theatre of operations of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force.

This immersion allows students to develop an idea of what it was like for young Brazilian soldiers from the tropics to arrive in Italy and stay throughout the winter, in a mountainous region, and confront a well-trained and experienced enemy. The excursion detailed what it was like for the Brazilian soldiers to experience the culture shock of having to fight in an international force without the necessary language skills and interact with a population victimized. During these trips, we also focus on the ways that Italians continues to cultivate the memories of Brazil’s presence during the war.

The society caters to both Brazilian and foreign students that want to learn more about Brazil’s political and economic context, and celebrate its culture. Through social, cultural, and academic events, this student- led group aims to engage the Brazilian community within King’s.

The partnership between the Institute and the wider student body has allowed undergraduate students to access lectures and events involving high-profile academics and professionals, as well as provided career- development opportunities. Moreover, it allowed Brazilian students to learn more about their home country and maintain a connection with their culture while also encouraging while also encouraging non- Brazilian students to learn more about Brazil.

I had the greatest experience at the Brazil Institute during my Joint PhD between King’s and University of São Paulo. The academic meetings and the support of the colleagues William Frost, Free lance Jounralist and video maker and the professors were crucial not only to my professional improvement, but also to my personal development. “My experience of studying at the King’s Brazil Institute was excellent. I especially enjoyed the interdisciplinary aspect of the course. I had the opportunity to study a broad variety of Brazilian society including politics, cinema, history and environmental issues. This breadth of topics allowed a deeper and more comprehensive understanding of Brazil in the twenty-first century. The connection with the University of São Paulo was a key one as it meant that we could meet students and professors from Brazil who could give us a really Thomas Froehlich, ESRC-funded postdoctoral research fellow at the Department of clear idea of what was really happening in the country.

Like no other place in the world, KBI brings together interdisciplinary knowledge of Brazil and enables collaborative research into Brazil’s domestic and foreign policies.

Christoph Harig, Research Fellow at Helmut Schmidt University in Hamburg, Germany Being part of the first group of the Joint PhD program with the University of São Paulo was a remarkable experience. It was an incredible opportunity to meet excellent researchers I received a PhD scholarship from King’s Brazil Institute in 2013 and completed my doctoral with diverse backgrounds, to establish professionals networks and, of course, make good studies in 2017. At King’s, I was able to benefit from exchanging ideas with colleagues and friends. The infrastructure of libraries and labs was very impressive, as was the quality of staff members from different departments. This helped enormously in improving my PhD the methodology courses and the Institute seminars, all essential to improve my research project. The academic environment at the Brazil Institute provided a unique setting for skills. The program opened many doors. After my doctorate, I worked in the Brazilian understanding the historical, political, and socio-economic context of my dissertation on government, universities, and in third sector organizations. Today I dedicate myself to Brazil’s armed forces. I probably would not have been able to conduct the kind of fieldwork research and teach International Relations, using much of what I learned during my time I did at any other institution, as my supervisor’s extensive network opened doors to many at King’s. research opportunities.

Through the Master’s programme, I was able to gain an internship at the British Embassy in Brazil where I met with Brazilian contacts, helped develop policy, met a British secretary of state, and got a flavour of diplomatic life. And the time I spent there helped me to choose Delilah Wright-Sutherland, Market Intelligence at Sportradar the topic for my thesis. This was a truly enriching and transformative experience that I am thankful to the Brazil Institute for.

I am in no doubt the analytical skills I learnt on the Master’s programme, and gave me a great insight into the kind of work the Brazil institute was doing as well as seeing first hand one of the most beautiful ecosystems on the planet.
