Boaventura, a Distinguished Scholar
September is marked by two more recognitions, this time Brazil. The Federal Universities of Mato Grosso and Sergipe granted Prof. Boaventura the Honoris Causa degree. Together, the aforementioned distinctions address, first of all, the activist himself and the correspondent role in the struggle for human rights.
