Cultural heritage and social movements in Portugal and Brazi

Overview

Cultural and social initiatives in Portugal and Brazil have focused on heritage preservation and social movements. In Portugal, celebrations in Vila Viçosa honored the legacy of Dr. João Augusto do Couto Jardim, a physician noted for his humanitarian work during the 1918 Spanish flu epidemic. Later, in Lisbon, the Konferénsia Panafrikanu di Lisboa organized the III Marxa Cabral under the theme ‘In Defense of the Land and Life: Recognize, Repair, Decolonize’, connecting anti-colonialism and anti-racism to ecological and land rights issues.

In Brazil, regional heritage has been celebrated through various events, including Vassouras’s IV Heritage Week and folklore-focused activities in Rio das Ostras and Rio de Janeiro. Additionally, the Coletivo Nosso Kilombo launched the ‘LEVANTA POVO! Sambas, Artesanias e Resistências’ project in Itapuã, which includes craft-making, heritage walks for the deaf, and community ceremonies to promote local history and resistance.
