The lecture series “Asia and Europe: Dialogues” is, for the second year running, a cultural activity financed by the Eurasia Foundation (based in Tokyo), with the aim of stimulating academic and cultural dialogue between Asia, Europe and the Lusophone World. It follows the first edition held between February and May of 2021, under the theme "Asian and European-Lusophone Civilization".
Its fundamental objective is to broaden the cultural horizon of the academic community and to deepen the interdisciplinary dialogue that crosses areas of study such as Literature, Law, Culture, Medicine, Pharmacy, History, Economics, Education, Sociology, International Relations, among others.

Winners' messages
"Gostaria de ressaltar a profunda importância dos Prémios pela Fundação Eurasia em parceria com a Universidade de Coimbra, por possibilitar a democratização de recursos e conhecimento, em tempos com tantas crises socioambientais, econômicas, políticas e culturais que vivemos. Precisamos de mais iniciativas como estas que aconteçam de maneira contínua e abrangente, para que consigamos contribuir com a construção de uma nova cultura global e local democrática, dialógica, de relacionamentos, de distribuição de renda, de evidências científicas, de criatividade, de inclusão, de oportunidades, de participação social e de respeito à biodiversidade. Obrigada pela belíssima oportunidade de produzir um texto crítico e sensível, e ter sido premiada! Infelizmente o atual governo brasileiro não valoriza a produção de conhecimento, a democracia, o bem-estar social coletivo e a biosfera. Espero conseguir construir cada vez mais pontes integradoras para a minha pesquisa acadêmica, minha produção artística, mas não somente, de outras comunidades brasileiras e do mundo. O texto que criei é fruto do aprendizado que conquistei nas palestras incríveis sobre a Ásia e a Europa, que contou com a participação de palestrantes e estudantes de diferentes continentes e lugares do mundo. Desejo vida longa para essa iniciativa tão necessária!"
Aline Neli
"Pela segunda vez me foi oportuno participar do ciclo de palestras organizado pela Academia Sino-Lusófona da Universidade de Coimbra, com patrocínio da Fundação Eurásia, e novamente este evento foi responsável por acrescer importante conteúdo cultural, político e social em minha formação, bem como por atualizar meu conhecimento histórico sobre as relações tecidas entre Portugal e múltiplos espaços na Ásia, nos últimos séculos. Com muito orgulho recebo esse prêmio que também condecora uma trajetória de pesquisas sobre a história da ciência no Mundo Lusófono, mantendo ainda a expectativa da continuidade do estudo desses vínculos históricos que, em parte, a todos nós definem."
Márcio Mota Pereira
