Music education initiatives in Brazil and Portugal

Overview

New and established music education initiatives are being highlighted in Brazil and Portugal. In Iguatu, Brazil, the FAJI organization launched the ‘Territórios Sonoros da Infância’ project, a free program providing musicalization through singing, rhythm, and recorder instruction for children.

In Portugal, educational efforts include the NOVA FCSH ‘Música na Infância: Movimento, Voz e Comunicação’ cycle, which offers educators interdisciplinary training in improvisation and rhythmic singing. Additionally, the MUS-E project, inspired by Yehudi Menuhin and Zoltán Kodály, celebrated 30 years of integrating arts into essential education. The project, which has expanded to 13 countries, aims to foster intercultural societies and improve academic performance in subjects like literacy and mathematics through artistic engagement.
