Abstract

The project "Brasils and Their Voices: Language, Culture, and Art" aims to teach the Portuguese language through creative writing, promoting a critical analysis of the Brazilian society and its evolving narratives. Students will develop their writing and reading skills while exploring social, cultural, and identity issues that permeate Brazil.Additionally, the project seeks to promote and celebrate cultural exchanges between Brazil and France, valuing the literary and artistic heritages that connect the two countries. Through guest lectures, writing and reading workshops, exhibitions, and film screenings, we will experience how these artistic interactions shape the contemporary identities of both nations.
