The inaugural Fronteiras Festival in São Paulo is set to take place on March 7 and 8, bringing together prominent Brazilian thinkers to explore the complexities of the human condition within the context of hyperconnectivity and technological advancements. The festival coincides with International Women's Day, dedicating its second day entirely to female perspectives.

With a program that spans across fields such as philosophy, psychoanalysis, literature, economy, spirituality, and journalism, the festival is designed to foster dialogue through more than 40 panels distributed across four stages - Human, Society, Thought, and Literature. Notable participants include renowned figures like psychoanalyst Christian Dunker, authors Fabrício Carpinejar and Milton Hatoum, and historian Lilia Schwarcz, all of whom will contribute to the rich discussion aimed at examining how technology reshapes our understanding of humanity.

The event is not just a gathering of academic and intellectual discussions; it also serves as a platform for diverse voices in Brazilian society, encouraging dialogues about how new technologies influence ethics, culture, and identity. With contributions from renowned journalists and columnists from Folha, including Sérgio Dávila, the festival underscores the role of media in addressing the societal implications of these technological changes.
