Ciências in Harmony

Personal development, artistic activities, or just gardening: there is more to life than lectures and laboratories

Ciências em Harmonia (Ciências in Harmony) brings together teachers, students and professionals around initiatives that aim to promote well-being while complementing what happens inside classrooms or laboratories. Past projects and services have included dance, painting and creative writing classes, as well as yoga and meditation sessions, training on empathy and personal relationships, horticulture and spirituality, social gatherings, and lectures by external experts. The name itself explains the initiative's mission: harmony is the goal to be achieved by the community, because it is in harmony that we all learn and work better.

What is Ciências in Harmony?

A project at CIÊNCIAS committed to promoting the well-being and development of individual and social skills within the CIÊNCIAS community.

From students to lecturers, researchers and services, we all coexist in the same space for most of our active time.

We want to bring harmony to this home that is CIÊNCIAS.

Why? Because in Harmony:

  • we learn better

  • it is easier to believe that we are capable

  • we relate better to each other

  • we get more pleasure from what we do

Throughout the academic year, this project creates a physical and temporal space for meeting with diverse activities, welcoming each and every one of the different sensibilities and interests of the members of the CIÊNCIAS community.

What activities are currently available?

Activity plan for the first semester of 2025/2026
