Biographical Note
André Soares started his career as a radio culture journalist (TSF) and then moved on to television to a program of culture on RTP (Radio and Television of Portugal). He developed television formats for Angolan television and made two documentaries: one about the Struga Poetry Festival, Republic of Macedonia and another about Angolan Style between Luanda, Lisbon, Los Angeles and New York. Also edited a lifestyle magazine - "DIVO MAGAZINE". He develops strategic communication work in networks and also institutional communication about culture and scientific dissemination (being a journalist for the "Egg of Columbus" program of SIC-Television). In 2015 I defended my dissertation on the practice and diffusion of kizomba throughout the world under the Master in Anthropology, specialization Globalizations, Migrations and Multiculturalism, with the thesis focused on contemporary flows and circuits in culture and economy. At this moment I am attending the Doctoral Program Politics and Display of Culture and Museology at ISCTE-IUL, NOVA FCSH Universidade Nova Lisbon with funding from FCT - PD / BD / 137669/2018. _x000D_
