This seminar aims to explore the cultural diversity of the Lusosphere. It provides a platform for educators, students, researchers, academics, and professionals to share their insights and practices as well as discuss current trends, concerns, and experiences in the areas of language, literature, culture, and education. The goal is to set up an environment where not only specialists can share the results of their research, but where undergraduate/graduate students have the chance to share their ideas about cultural practices, products, and perspectives in Portuguese. From a variety of perspectives, we intend to incorporate new avenues, new theoretical and methodological paradigms, and new advancements in the areas of language, literature, culture, and education. The seminar objects to provide an opportunity to communicate their informed views and suggestions to an audience seeking to gain new insights into the cultures of the Luso Sphere.
