Last Monday, September 15, the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ) signed a memorandum of understanding with the École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales (EHESS), a prestigious French institution of higher education.
The agreement, signed by UFRJ Rector Professor Roberto de Andrade Medronho and EHESS President Professor Romain Huret, marks a new stage in cooperation between the two institutions, laying the groundwork for joint initiatives with a focus on the Humanities and the Arts.
The EHESS delegation was welcomed at a meeting held in the Rector’s office, which also included representatives from UFRJ’s International Relations Office and the Consulate General of France in Brazil. The Consulate was represented by Vincent Brignol, responsible for science and technology, who reaffirmed the Consulate’s commitment to strengthening ties between UFRJ and French institutions of higher education and research.
