Signed the agreement between Eurispes - a private Italian entity working in the field of political, economic and social research - and the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro. Gian Maria Fara, President of Eurispes, and Vice Chancellor Leonardo Lima Gomes formalized the cultural, scientific and academic collaboration agreement, which is the first step in launching joint initiatives between the BRICS Policy Center of the University's Institute of International Relations and Eurispes' BRICS Laboratory. The goal is to analyze in depth the reality of the BRICS, precisely in the year when Brazil will assume the coordination presidency, and to foster dialogue among the bloc's nations. Through shared studies and meetings, the partners aim to reduce international tensions and promote more equitable and sustainable global development.
