Unesc professor develops internationalization activities at universities in Portugal

Michele Gonçalves Cardoso, a professor in the History program and the Graduate Program in Socioeconomic Development (PPGDS) at Unesc, developed two internationalization activities in Portugal aimed at strengthening collaborative research with other institutions. She co-supervised a master's thesis at the University of Coimbra and conducted a technical visit to the University of Lisbon.

In Coimbra, Michele was a co-supervisor of research linked to the master's program in Sustainable Tourism, Heritage, and Development. The work, titled "Heritage Tourism in Brazil from a Comparative Perspective: Contributions from the Portuguese Model," analyzes, based on Portugal's experience, pathways for managing tourism associated with heritage in the Brazilian context.

The professor also visited the Lisbon School of Economics & Management (ISEG) at the University of Lisbon, where she was welcomed by Professor Maria João Santos. The meeting aimed to deepen partnerships between ISEG and the Graduate Program in Socioeconomic Development (PPGDS) at Unesc.
