Danilo Amaral Cançado 3rd year and Rafael Ferraz do Amaral 2nd year
This course has been an amazing opportunity to learn and discuss about the sustainability in cities trough several approaches, such as water management, urban mobility, green buildings, energy distribution and extreme events. In addition, we got to know, in the site visits, efforts been made to solve the problems we face nowadays. With this background, we were able to develop our projects and came up with solutions.
Besides this technical part, we got in touch with people who share the same concerns and we could create a network with them.  Also, the cultural exchange between students from different place and both universities contributed more to our perspective of the city’s problems.
We believe that the knowledge we gain will definitely help us throughout our careers and for that we are very grateful.
