Resumo

The aim of the symposium and workshop is to discuss, construct, and consolidate an academic network in the fields of science, technology and communication between both nations, for the general comprehension of the society (Sc-T& S). Indian well known experience in Public Communication (popularization) of Science and Technology will benefit the establishment of an Interdisciplinary Center offering a program of postgraduate studies in this area with an international scope at the University of São Paulo. The Forum "Declaration of Brasilia", held in 2003, is in progress as well as other individual initiatives. The University of São Paulo is very much interested in establishing an official agreement to promote a bilateral interchange of academic research projects, staff and students in various fields of knowledge. Furthermore, the main themes that bring both countries together are the geophysical, economical, and ethnic diversities, which present a mutual challenge in need of solutions, cooperative educational, political and economic politics and strategies.
