MEC says it will send resources to Unifesp in the east zone – 05/17/2023 – Mônica Bergamo

The Minister of Education, Camilo Santana, pledged this Wednesday (17) to make it possible to carry out new works on the campus of the Federal University of São Paulo (Unifesp) located in the east zone of the capital of São Paulo.

The agreement was sealed after a meeting with federal deputy Guilherme Boulos (PSOL-SP) and with the dean of the educational institution, Raiane Assumpção.

“I have very good news for São Paulo — in particular, for the east zone”, said Boulos, in a video recorded alongside the minister, the dean and the secretary of Higher Education at MEC, Denise Pires De Carvalho.

According to the parliamentarian, during the meeting, university projects were presented that are in the approval and licensing phase with the São Paulo City Hall. “The minister assumed the commitment that, after licensing, he will hold a tender to start the work the next day”, said the PSOL deputy.

The Minister of Education, in turn, stated that the works are a determination of President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT). “The MEC will guarantee the resources so that we can start, as quickly as possible, this long-awaited work that is the campus in the east zone of the Federal University of São Paulo”, said Santana.

Earlier this month, the Chief Executive promised to deliver, by the end of his term, two federal universities and a new campus in the Greater São Paulo region.
