International students and scholars are especially welcome. You are invited to take part in this dynamic preparation workshop which will provide information about local classrooms, practical ideas for planning an interactive presentation, and an opportunity to share ideas with other speakers. Refreshments will be served. The fourth weekend each month MIC offers international students and scholars the opportunity to visit in a Minnesota home for an evening of dinner and conversation. Usually there will be 2 to 4 international guests.
Hosts can provide transportation.
In keeping with MIC's year-long focus on Brazil, we will discuss environmental opportunities and challenges in Brazil today. Dinner features Latin American cuisine, followed by a presentation and discussion. Both international and Minnesotan participants are invited. The presenter will be Eugenio Arcanjo, a lawyer and legislative advisor to the Brazilian Senate and responsible for providing legal advice on international environmental and intellectual property rights. He is studying in the U.S. this year, as a Humphrey Fellow at the University of Minnesota.
