On September 19, 21, 23, and 26, the Brazilian Center for International Relations (CEBRI), in partnership with the Brazil-China Studies Institute (IBRACH) and Beijing's Tsinghua University, will hold the online seminar China Today - Anna Jaguaribe Program, in tribute to the sociologist who pioneered Brazil-China studies and passed away last year. The program, which has a limited number of places, is aimed at the public sector, executives and others interested in business opportunities with China.

The China Today course will consist of four exclusive classes, conducted by renowned Chinese experts in English, without simultaneous translation. The following topics will be addressed: Innovation Policies and the role of large technology companies and state-owned companies; Changes in the Geopolitical Context; Macroeconomic Policies and Financial Reforms, and China and Eurasia. 

"Anna Jaguaribe had a deep knowledge of Chinese culture and philosophy. Her reflections were innovative for a better understanding of China's role as a power in current global geopolitics and the multilateral system", said the Chairman of CEBRI's Board of Trustees, José Pio Borges.

Brazil was the seventh largest exporter to China in 2021, which contributed to ensuring record surplus in Brazil's balance of trade that year. However, only ten products were responsible for 91.4% of the total value that Brazil exported to the Asian giant then. The three leading products – iron ore, soybeans and oil – accounted for 80% of the total of Brazilian exports China.

Even if Brazil was China's seventh largest supplier in 2021, it led sales to the Asian country of only 48 products. The champion in this ranking was Japan, with 1,444 items, followed by Germany, with 856 products, and the United States, with 796. Experts believe there is potential for greater cooperation and partnerships between the two countries.
