Beatriz Araújo

I am an accomplished International Relations specialist with over 20 years of experience in driving the internationalization of higher education institutions. I hold a degree in International Relations (1999) and a Master’s in European Union Policies and Territorial Cooperation (2010), both from the University of Minho.
Throughout my career, I’ve held key roles in promoting academic cooperation, managing international mobility programs, and coordinating research initiatives. From 2016 to 2020, I had the privilege of serving as the Director of the International Relations Office at UMinho, where I led strategic initiatives that significantly enhanced the university’s global engagement. My expertise also extends to managing and participating in a wide range of EU programs, particularly under the ERASMUS+ Programme.

More recently, I have expanded my expertise into digital health, developing new skills to align with emerging trends in healthcare innovation. Currently, I hold a position at 2CA-Braga, where I focus on Digital Health and Internationalization.

I am passionate about fostering global collaboration, leveraging my extensive background in internationalization, and contributing to innovative solutions in the healthcare sector.
