Renata Corrêa, IBGE’s manager for Educational Affairs, explains that “Unidos de Vila Maria samba school has a very comprehensive project in the fields of education, health and culture, and we will present our IBGEeduca (IBGE Teaches), a portal that can be used by students, teachers and anyone who wants to learn more about Brazil. Different types of language are adopted to disseminate the content, according to each target public. This project by Unidos de Vila Maria is an opportunity to offer this service to a different public, and that also reinvigorates us, as we exchange ideas, clear their doubts and see new perspectives. We will speak about IBGEeduca, and also learn from them.”
