S\u00e3o Paulo \u2013 A celebration in November, called Brazilian Day, highlighted Brazil\u2019s traditions and cultural heritage in the United Arab Emirates. Although Brazil\u2019s Independence Day falls on September 7, the event was held in the UAE in November due to high temperatures in the Gulf region through mid-September.<\/p>\n\n\n

A demonstration of Brazilian jiu-jitsu, for both men and women, was also held, as the sport is widely practiced in the UAE. \u201cNational Day is above all a moment to celebrate our Brazilian identity, and we do so with pride and enthusiasm.

According to Romeiro, Brazilian Day is a unique opportunity to showcase Brazil\u2019s traditions and cultural heritage and to consolidate the so-called soft power. \u201cIn other words, our strength lies in the expression of a people who are achievers, creative, motivated, heirs to a rich cultural tradition, joyful, and adept at interacting. And the National Day allows us to showcase these qualities through an official channel,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Brazilian celebration was attended by representatives of the diplomatic corps, officials from the Emirati government, local and Brazilian entrepreneurs based in the UAE, as well as members of the Brazilian community living in the country. The Deputy Consul of the Brazilian Embassy, Carlos Gard\u00e9s, also took part in the event, which featured representation from over 100 countries through their embassies. The event was also attended by the UAE Minister of Foreign Trade, Thani bin Ahmed Al Zeyoudi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The celebration was organized by the Embassy of Brazil in the UAE in partnership with the Arab-Brazilian Chamber of Commerce<\/strong> (ABCC<\/a>) and sponsored by Brazilian companies, facilitated by the ABCC. \u201cFor the ABCC, supporting initiatives like this is part of our mission to bring cultures closer together and expand business potential between Brazil and the Arab world,\u201d Rafael Solimeo, Head of the ABCC\u2019s Dubai Office, told ANBA. In addition to Solimeo, the celebration was attended on behalf of the institution by Treasurer Mohamad Abdouni Neto and members of the Dubai office team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
