No programa de Estudos Brasileiros – hoje o núcleo do CEBRAGA -, aprendi a importância de pensar coletivamente sobre os muitos Brasis possíveis e de repensar criticamente como as historiografias e as perspectivas etnolinguísticas o moldaram. Durante o estágio, tive a oportunidade de participar ativamente da vida do departamento e de articular minhas trajetórias de pesquisa – o nexo entre trabalho, resíduos e justiça ambiental – com as atividades do centro. Encontrei nos Estudos Brasileiros na Universidade de Aarhus um espaço onde o rigor acadêmico convive com um compromisso concreto com as epistemologias subalternizadas.

During my time at the Brazilian Studies program – today the nucleus of CEBRAGA - I learned the importance of thinking together about the many possible Brazils, and of critically rethinking how historiographies and ethnolinguistics have shaped it. During my traineeship I had the opportunity to actively participate in the life of the department and weave my research trajectories – the labour-waste-environmental justice nexus – into the program's activities. with With Brazilian Studies at Aarhus University, I found a space where academic rigor coexists with a concrete commitment to the marginalised epistemologies.
