Collaborations & professional organizations 

During my time in the United States, I have had the opportunity to join professional organizations and build networks that continue to shape my academic and professional growth. These collaborations are important because they provide spaces to exchange knowledge, engage with diverse perspectives, and access mentorship and resources that strengthen my research and practice. Beyond the U.S., I am also engaged with organizations in Mozambique and South Africa, building partnerships that support accessibility, translation, and community-based inclusion. At a personal level, I also lead Na Kholwa Serviços, where we recently launched Vozes Inclusivas, an educational podcast. Beginning in Fall 2025, this project will focus on disability-related topics, amplifying diverse voices and fostering public dialogue on inclusion.
