About
Our Mission
BRASA is an international, interdisciplinary group of scholars who support and promote Brazilian studies in all fields, especially in the humanities and social sciences. BRASA is dedicated to the promotion of Brazilian studies around the world in general, and in the United States in particular.
BRASA organizes an international congress on Brazilian studies every other year. The most recent congress, BRASA IX, was held at Tulane University in New Orleans, Louisiana, March 27-29, 2008. BRASA X will take place 22-24 July 2010 in Brasília at the Meliá 21 Convention Center. The preliminary program will be published on this website in mid-January 2010.
BRASA currently has more than 600 members in the United States, Brazil, Europe, and many other Latin American countries.
The organization is funded through the dues of its members and generous support from the College of Arts and Science and the Office of the Provost at Vanderbilt University.
