We received the illustrious contemporary philosopher, Edgar Morin. His inspiring words echoed in the hearts and minds of all present, challenging us to reflect on the future of humanity in a profound and interconnected way. He was awarded, in the highest degree, the Order of Bandarra, for his exceptional and significant service in defence of the values of Education and the Portuguese Language, contributing to the aggrandisement and projection of Portugal.
Morin shared his vision of the complexity of our world and the importance of uniting knowledge, cultures and forms of wisdom to face today's challenges. He reminded us that we are 100% nature and 100% culture, and that a complete understanding of the human being requires the integration of these aspects.
