International Cooperation
The Graduate Program in Education of the Federal Rural University of Rio de Janeiro (PPGEduc/UFRRJ) was delighted to welcome researchers from the University of Atacama (Chile), in a meeting that marked the beginning of a promising international partnership.
The meeting took place within the research group GPDoc, coordinated by Prof. Edméa Santos, and was attended by professors Dr. María José Gallardo and Dr. Carmen Burgos and professor Dr. Fernando Herrera, who shared their careers, projects and genuine interest in the research carried out at the Rural University.
The highlight was a lecture that culminated in the signing of a technical cooperation agreement between the two institutions — the first step of a partnership that promises to grow.
