SINTER’s Unit Working Group for the development of the PDI (Institutional Development Plan) 2025-2029 has the participation of the international community
In the context of the collective development of the new Institutional Development Plan (PDI) of UFSC for the period of 2025 and 2029, SINTER has created a Unit Working group (GTS) to discuss internationalization issues that will be part of the plan. Among the main objectives of SINTER GTS are: 1. to maintain the comprehensive internationalization strategy at UFSC; 2. to ensure that internationalization objectives and goals take into account the “diversity of contexts, social groups, ethnicities, cultures and interests that exist in and around the University” (SINTER, 2022).
In view of these objectives, SINTER invited two members of the international community to be part of the GTS. Namely: the Angolan Nataniel Cassoma Kuanza – President of the Association of Angolans in Florianópolis, representing the external community; and the Timorese Miranda Goretti da Costa Soares, representing graduate students. Also participating in the SINTER GTS are: Fernanda Leal – Director of International Relations (Managing Agent); Bruno Farias (Development Agent); Rafaela Céspedes – Administrative Support Coordinator (representing Technical and Administrative Staff); Ana Paula Mota (undergraduate student representative) and Ênio Snoeijer (graduate student representative).
