Advisors of the Brazil Studies Program

The David Rockefeller Center for Latin American Studies (DRCLAS) is committed to the principle of faculty oversight of its activities. The Brazil Studies Program’s Faculty Advisory Committee is comprised of over 50 faculty members from all of Harvard’s nine faculties as well as seven ex-officio senior administrators. The committee meets in Cambridge at least once a year to help guide the activities of the Brazil Studies Program and the Brazil Office in São Paulo. Faculty Advisors provide the Program and the Office with critical visibility across schools and disciplines.

The DRCLAS Brazil Office and Brazil Studies Program are extremely fortunate to have a distinguished, dedicated, and generous Brazil Office Advisory Group. Advisors are senior leaders from across disciplines and sectors with a demonstrated commitment to education. They are stewards of increasingly strong ties between Harvard and Brazil and provide vision, advice, and support of the program and its initiatives. Advisors may not be public officials or candidates for public office. Brazil Advisory Group members serve two-year, renewable terms. Meetings of the group take place twice per year in Brazil.

Student Advisors provide the Program with critical visibility across disciplines. Their active engagement in group meetings, which take place once per semester, helps shape the Program’s agenda.
