“Conquistar

“Deve
ser atribuído um cada

às mulheres empreendedoras,

mais e melhores oportunidades

Angola, Portugal, Moçambique, Cabo
Verde… A Lusofonia está sempre muito
presente na revista. Qual a sua opinião
sobre o assunto
A Lusofonia já não é a causa da moda, mas está
na moda. A CPLP é vista como uma comunidade
activa, à qual outros países tradicionalmente
não lusófonos pretendem juntar-se. Os
países que compõem a Lusofonia assumem
os seus destinos de forma independente, e a
visão de força conjunta já está assimilada. Esse
facto é uma realidade nas trocas comerciais,
na cooperação ao nível político e conferências
nos mais variados domínios.
O que sente após conquistar
100 edições da revista
África Today E o que
podemos esperar para o
Futuro
Angola assume cada vez
mais uma clara e natural
liderança na sua região de
inserção geográfica, mas
também no contexto da
Lusofonia. A África Today
reúne todas as características
e condições para se assumir
como um instrumento de comunicação
poderoso que acompanha
essa liderança.
of the pioneers in this area what is your
opinion about this phenomenon
By the time of the 90s, in many conferences
I attended, university professors, media
professionals abundantly referred the term
“Global Village”. I especially recall the wistful
Rui Romano. By that time this issue was
more theoretical than practical for us. But
in few years, it has proved to be a fact
to consider. The digital platforms are
very useful tools which complement
our fieldwork. Its huge competitive
advantage is to enlarge our communication
borders and the timely of
the news. By making use of the traditional
and digital routes we are an
undeniable vehicle.
There are, even, those who argue
that the traditional format of an editorial
office has its days counted. Do you
agree with this view
I agree that we should be complementary.
Africa Today is a good example. We have an
editorial office in Lisbon and another in Luanda.
Some of our staff do not even know
one another in person, however, they work
together, there is team spirit and we take advantage
of these two platforms.
Do you feel professionally fulfilled
Conquering one hundred editions under my
management reflects our responsibility, our
commitment and ability to perform.
Angola, Portugal, Mozambique, Cape
Verde… Lusophony is always very present
in the magazine. What is your opinion
about the issue
Lusophony is not the trendy cause anymore,
but it is in vogue. The CPLP is seen as an active
community, to which other traditionally
non-Lusophone countries intend to join. The
countries that compose the Lusophony take
their destinies independently, and the view
of joint strength is already assimilated. This
fact is a reality in the commercial trade, in
political cooperation and in conferences in
several domains.
What do you feel after conquering 100
editions of the Africa Today magazine
And what can we expect for the future
Angola assumes more and more a clear and
natural leadership in its geographic region,
but also in the Lusophony context. Africa Today
gathers all the characteristics and conditions
to be assumed as a powerful communication
tool that accompanies that leadership.
