Humberto Campana Awarded the Knight insignia of the Order of Rio Braco

May 27, 2025

          Humberto Campana was awarded the Knight insignia of the Order of Rio Branco in Brasília. Granted by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the honor recognizes services rendered in strengthening Brazil’s diplomatic and cultural relations. With the Vice-President, authorities, diplomats and civil society in attendance, the medal celebrates the legacy of 40+ years of Humberto and his late brother Fernando in promoting Brazilian culture abroad.

          “I’m honored to receive this medal in my name and Fernando’s, with whom I was be to build a story that is a collective one — of seeking Brazilian identity, of preserving our vernacular culture, of showing the world our value and taking pride in our roots. I say that today Brazil no longer needs to ask permission to show its work abroad. We’ve earned our place in the sun, and I’m happy that the MFA recognizes our pioneering role, as well as that of so many others honored today, who collectively elevate Brazil’s image abroad with elegance and dignity.” — Humberto Campana
