The concept of cosmopolitanism has been gaining space within the debates that problematize the articulation between global and local processes. Based on research experiences involving the city of São Paulo and Mexico City, the seminar aims to discuss the variety of existing approaches based on the concept of cosmopolitanism, which go beyond the elitist and exclusive sense usually attributed to the term, to point out possibilities for reflection within the field of urban studies.​​​​​​​

Promoted by the Center for Amerindian Studies of the University of São Paulo, CEstA-USP, and supported by the Permanent Commission for Affirmative Actions of the Graduate Program in Social Anthropology at the University of São Paulo, COPAF / PPGAS-USP, the event will bring together about thirty indigenous scholars from all regions of Brazil to discuss their research and life trajectories, covering the most varied themes and contexts. With a multiple purpose, an attempt is made to establish a reception space for the new indigenous members of the PPGAS / USP, allowing, since their entry, connections with indigenous researchers from other regions. The cycle is combined with other events that make up the activities of the indigenous April throughout the country, helping to make the presence and protagonism of indigenous peoples in academic spaces more and more constant. Program available on the CEstA-USP website​​​​​​​ (https://cesta.fflch.usp.br/node/1507)

​​​​​​​In recent years, museums in several countries have guided their exhibitions and even broader and longer-lasting actions by so-called colonial debates. With the covid-19 pandemic, several of these processes were interrupted or rearticulated, since exhibitions, seminars and other actions were canceled or postponed. The seminar aims to discuss, under the impact of the pandemic and decolonial approaches, the relationship of museums with cities, as well as the influence of these institutions beyond the exhibition space, that is, in urban space and in the imaginary. Furthermore, as a counterpoint to the large traditional museums, issues related to community museums will be addressed.

The first 2021 edition of Gender & Inequalities + Health - Debates brings to discussion the relationship between fat bodies and covid-19 pandemic. In this sense, we propose to discuss the issue from three axes: stigmas and stereotypes, activism and resistance. In this debate, the participants are:
