Professor Idalena Oliveira Chaves, from the Department of Languages and Literature at the Federal University of Viçosa (UFV), has had her work Portuguese as a Heritage Language in Asia and Oceania selected as the 2025 Portuguese Publication of the Year by the American Organization of Teachers of Portuguese (AOTP).

The recognition is part of the Award for Excellence in the Teaching of Portuguese in the United States, granted to outstanding publications that make a significant contribution to the teaching, learning, and promotion of the Portuguese language and Lusophone cultures. According to AOTP, the volume coordinated by Professor Idalena stood out for its originality and meaningful impact on both educators and students, being considered an important milestone in the promotion of the Portuguese language beyond the traditional Lusophone countries.

The official award ceremony will take place on August 1st, 2025, during the 14th World Meeting on the Teaching of Portuguese (EMEP) and the 2nd National Meeting on the Teaching of Portuguese (ENNEP), at Duke University, in Durham, North Carolina (USA).

The UFV Office for International Affairs congratulates Professor Idalena on this achievement and highlights the importance of her work for the internationalization of Portuguese language education, especially in heritage language contexts in less explored regions such as Asia and Oceania.
