Diaspora Bridges develops collaborative educational programs that connect students, educators, researchers, and communities across cultures and continents.

We partner with universities, schools, cultural institutions, museums, community organizations, and international programs to create meaningful learning experiences rooted in Afro-Brazilian history, African and Diaspora cultures, Yoruba heritage, capoeira, cultural identity, migration, and intercultural exchange.

Programs can include guest lectures, workshops, cultural immersion experiences, study-abroad components, faculty and student exchanges, capoeira and traditional arts instruction, community-based research, cultural fieldwork, and guided educational experiences in Bahia. Diaspora Bridges also provides Portuguese, English, Spanish, and Yoruba interpretation and cultural mediation to facilitate international collaboration.

Partner With Diaspora Bridges

We don’t simply provide tours or isolated activities, we co-design educational partnerships around your institution’s curriculum, research priorities, student learning objectives, and international engagement goals.

Is your institution looking to expand its global curriculum, develop a Bahia-based study program, establish Afro-Diasporic cultural partnerships, or create meaningful international learning opportunities?

Let’s build the program together.

Contact Diaspora Bridges to discuss your institution’s goals and develop a custom collaborative educational program in Bahia.
