Paulo Menechelli, PhD International Relations & Cultural Diplomacy Specialist

My research focuses on how China uses culture, media, and strategic narratives to reshape its global image, with a particular emphasis on Latin America. With a PhD recognized as the Best Thesis in the Humanities at the University of Brasília (2024), I combine rigorous academic inquiry with direct policy engagement, having contributed to Brazil's G20, BRICS, and COP30 presidencies and currently advising the Brazilian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
