NACI – International Community Support Unit

NACI was created with the aim of making UFES a more welcoming, inclusive and international environment. The unit offers support to international students and researchers from the moment they decide to come to Brazil until they have settled into university life, assisting them with academic, cultural and day-to-day practical matters.

Diversity strengthens the university. For this reason, NACI promotes intercultural relations, respect for human rights and the expansion of opportunities for participation and learning within the academic community.

The project works collaboratively with different departments at UFES to build a university that is better connected to the world.

What do we do?

NACI supports the international community with:

• Arrival and settling in Brazil
• Academic adaptation
• Cultural and linguistic issues
• Institutional information
• Integration into university life
