Abstract

This article describes the U.S. and Brazilian exchange in rehabilitation and disability supported by the Fund for the Improvement of Post Secondary Education (FIPSE) in America, and the Ministry of Education in Brazil. The purpose of the program is to enable U.S. and Brazilian students to complete a semester of coursework and field experiences at one of the four partner universities in order to strengthen rehabilitation-related links among the partners, and to enable participating students to acquire cross-culture knowledge and skills in this area. Our program, funded in 2004, has offered opportunities for several students and faculty members to learn more about rehabilitation and disability, and to continue to participate in on-going scholarly projects around these issues.
