In July 2026 Brazil’s judicial education agenda expanded further. After the Enfam visit to Acre’s Judicial Power School and the launch of Tocantins’s self‑paced online modules, the Federal Justice Council’s Centre for Judicial Studies ran a 40‑slot course on abusive litigation (30 July‑4 September). By late July, the Tribunal de Justiça do Mato Grosso opened registration for an introductory environmental‑law course (3‑5 August) combining two in‑person days at Esmagis‑MT and a remote day, certified for magistrates’ promotion and taught by scholars Ingo Wolfgang Sarlet and Tiago Fensterseifer. The same month, the 43rd meeting of the Grupo de Estudos da Magistratura (GEMAM) was scheduled for 14 August in Barra do Garças, featuring presentations by senior judges. Meanwhile, Minas Gerais will host the 14th Caravana Nacional da Cooperação Judiciária on 6 August, with senior officials including Corregedor Nacional de Justiça Mauro Campbell Marques and Ministro Afrânio Vilela focusing on abusive litigation, judicial costs and the system’s credibility. These events illustrate a broadening of training topics—from general competence‑building and digital skills to specialised environmental law and systemic issues such as litigation abuse—while reinforcing inter‑regional cooperation among Brazil’s judicial bodies.
