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 X, was held in Brasília on 22-24 of July 2010. BRASA XI will occur on September 06-08, 2012 at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
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 Lemann Institute for Brazilian Studies and the College of Arts and Science at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
