This Monday (21) in your ANBA Bulletin: Egypt's Commercial Office in São Paulo will have a space to showcase its goods and services in Campinas, São Paulo starting today. For six months, the venue will feature samples and catalogs from 50 Egyptian companies that deal in handicraft, crystals, furniture, herbs, dates, engineering and petrochemicals. “This is our first product exhibit of this kind in Brazil, where we're introducing new products and bringing existing ones, as well as promoting the reputation of Egyptian goods in Brazil,” Egypt's consul and Commercial Office head Mohamed Elkhatib told ANBA's Bruna Garcia.

Project Fazedores de Café (Coffee Makers) is offering a barista course to refugees. The initiative is from São Paulo's Sofá Café network. Initially intended for young people in social risk, it has now embraced foreigners for the first time. They are immigrants from Syria, Mali and Congo. Rajana Oulby, of Syria, is a musician and has been living in Brazil for three years. I really like coffee, I drink some good ones around here! And I wanted to learn more about the drink. The experience is turning out to be great!”, he told ANBA's Thais Sousa.

And the Federal University of Santa Catarina (UFSC) is doing research into the Paraná pine – an endangered species – with funding from the UAE's Mohamed bin Zayed Species Conservation Fund. “Considering the difficulties we find here to execute our ideas here in Brazil, we are always looking for foundations and grants,” said researcher Rafael Barbizan Sühs.
