About

This seminar aims to promote reflections on the phenomena of economic, social, political and cultural conservatism present in sectors of the black population from countries deriving from Portuguese colonialisation. As such, we have invited lecturers and researchers from Angola, Brazil, Cape Verde, Guiné Bissau and Mozambique. The target audience includes lecturers, students and researchers from the University of Coimbra and the Federal University of ABC, in Brasil and for all those interested.
