Applications will be open until next Friday (10) for those interested in participating in the “Virtual Student Academic Mobility” Program promoted by the Associação Universidade em Rede (UniRede) and associated institutions, including the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN).

Among the topics discussed in this curricular component are education for sustainability and its link to goals of peace and security, human rights, social justice and care for natural resources. The notice is available on the UniRede page.
