In the year 2000, Brazil celebrated the 500th anniversary of its discovery by the Portuguese navigator, Pedro Alvares Cabral, and subsequent settlement by the Portuguese and African, Western, and Asian immigrants. The seminar commemorating these events was designed for U.S. secondary and post-secondary teachers and curriculum specialists of the social sciences and the humanities who seek to understand, teach, do research, and update their knowledge of Brazil. The participants have created curriculum units for this report. The seminar devoted special attention to contemporary issues, comparing the development of Brazil since early European colonization with the challenges of the globalized world of the next millennium.
