O Bank Millennium, a Universidade de Varsóvia e o Camões, Instituto da Cooperação e da Língua, assinaram um protocolo de cooperação para a atribuição de uma bolsa de estudos ao melhor estudante da licenciatura em Estudos Portugueses da Universidade de Varsóvia.
A formação em língua e cultura portuguesas na Universidade de Varsóvia ficou reforçada ontem com o apoio do Bank Millennium na Polónia, que aceitou financiar, durante os próximos 3 anos, uma bolsa de estudos para o/a melhor estudante do curso de licenciatura em Estudos Portugueses do Instituto de Estudos Ibéricos e Ibero-americanos da Universidade de Varsóvia.
O projeto foi apresentado pelo Camões I.P. aos outros dois parceiros, que prontamente o aceitaram, e foi formalizado ontem, dia 16 de fevereiro, na reitoria da Universidade de Varsóvia, numa cerimónia em que participaram o Presidente do Conselho de Administração do Bank Millennium, a Embaixadora de Portugal em Varsóvia, em representação do Camões I.P., e o Reitor da Universidade de Varsóvia.
“Esta bolsa do Bank Millennium é um prémio generoso para todos aqueles que, na Universidade de Varsóvia, se empenham no estudo da língua portuguesa e da cultura dos países lusófonos. A bolsa permitirá aos estudantes alcançar ainda melhores resultados académicos e viajar até Portugal, onde poderão sentir e viver a língua e a cultura portuguesas. Acredito que esta parceria entre a Universidade de Varsóvia, o Bank Millennium e o Camões I.P., entre uma universidade e os setores público e privado, é extremamente valiosa hoje em dia e, neste caso concreto, muito contribuirá para fortalecer os laços entre os estudantes polacos e a cultura e a língua portuguesas”, explicou a Embaixadora de Portugal em Varsóvia, Dra. Maria Amélia Paiva.
Por sua vez, o Dr. João Brás Jorge, Presidente do Conselho de Administração do Bank Millennium afirmou que “a cooperação com a Universidade de Varsóvia e com o Camões I.P. é extremamente importante para nós. Por um lado, a Universidade de Varsóvia é a melhor e a maior universidade na Polónia, e por outro, o apoio ao desenvolvimento dos estudantes polacos, bem como a difusão da língua portuguesa na Polónia fazem parte da nossa missão de apoio à cultura e à educação. Dado o nosso acionista principal ser português, é particularmente importante para nós apoiar projetos que promovam a história e a cultura de Portugal.”
Bank Millennium, Uniwersytet Warszawski i Instytut Camõesa podpisały protokół o współpracy, na mocy którego Bank Millennium ufunduje w kolejnych latach stypendium dla najlepszego studenta studiów licencjackich w zakresie portugalistyki na Uniwersytecie Warszawskim.
Nauczanie języka i kultury portugalskiej na Uniwersytecie Warszawskim zostało wczoraj umocnione wsparciem Banku Millenium, który przez najbliższe 3 lata będzie przyznawał stypendium dla najlepszego studenta sekcji portugalskiej w Instytucie Studiów Iberyjskich i Iberoamerykańskich.
Instytut Camõesa przedstawił inicjatywę dwóm pozostałym partnerom, którzy natychmiast ją zaakceptowali. Umowa została podpisana wczoraj, 16 lutego, w rektoracie Uniwersytetu Warszawskiego, podczas uroczystości, w której uczestniczyli Prezes Zarządu Banku Millenium, Pani Ambasador Portugalii w Warszawie w imieniu Instytutu Camõesa oraz Rektor Uniwersytetu Warszawskiego.
“Stypendium Banku Millennium to hojna nagroda dla tych, którzy chcą poświęcić się studiowaniu języka i kultury krajów języka portugalskiego na Uniwersytecie Warszawskim. Stypendium pozwoli studentom osiągać lepsze wyniki w nauce i da im możliwość wyjazdu do Portugalii, gdzie będą mogli doświadczyć języka i kultury. Myślę, że partnerstwo Uniwersytetu Warszawskiego, Banku Millennium i Instytutu Camõesa – partnerstwo między uczelnią wyższą a sektorem publicznym i prywatnym, jest dziś niezwykle cenne i umacnia związki pomiędzy polskimi studentami a językiem i kulturą portugalską powiedziała Maria Amélia Paiva, Ambasador Portugalii w Polsce.
João Brás Jorge, Prezes Zarządu Banku Millenium, dodał: “Współpraca z Uniwersytetem Warszawskim i Instytutem Camõesa ma dla nas duże znaczenie. Uniwersytet Warszawski jest najlepszą i największą uczelnią wyższą w Polsce. Wspieranie rozwoju polskich studentów oraz upowszechnianie języka portugalskiego w Polsce doskonale współgra z naszą misją wspierania kultury i edukacji. Z uwagi na naszego głównego akcjonariusza, widzimy szczególną rolę Banku Millennium we wspieraniu przedsięwzięć promujących historię i kulturę Portugalii.”
