The statutory commitment of the Brazilian Bar Association to defend the democratic State of Law and to citizenship and Justice is renewed, as well as strengthened in each and every National Conference – a highlight of its events calendar.

Since its origin, in 1958, the Conferences have become a reference, not only to Advocacy, but also to civil society and political institutions of the State. At these conferences, subjects that are vital to public interest are debated. Besides corporative matters, likewise important, the country’s social-political situation is discussed, always searching for direct ways to overcome the challenges of the present time.

At this XX National Conference, in Natal, the main subject is the application, effectiveness and changing role of the 1988 Federal Constitution, which has reached 20 years of existence and therefore generates wide controversy, from those who defend it with passion to those who defend its revocation through a new National Constitutional Convention – whether fully or partially.

Once again, advocacy responds to the challenge of thinking and debating about Brazil without any subterfuges or partiality, with the only goal to contribute to improvement and effectiveness of the republican desire.

According to researches done by EMBRATUR (Brazilian Tourism Company), Natal is one of the favorite destinations of Brazilian tourists and foreign ones. Its sunny beaches of calm and shallow waters work as an inspiration to a show that lasts all year long.

A city that relies on tourism needs to bear all the structure to please its visitors. Natal is well known for being a clean and beautiful city. Its airport receives 23 international flights per week and 30 regular national flights daily. Its streets are broad, easy to traffic on and well signalized. Besides, the capital has a complete commercial structure.

Natal is the second city of the Northeast with the largest capacity to promote events. The new Convention Centre presents a larger and more modern structure to hold high-key events. It is located near the sea and close to the main Hotel complex of the city.

The city’s hotel network consists of approximately 26 thousand beds, from lodgings to internationally recognized 5-star hotels, and 95% of this network is within ten minutes or so from the Convention Center.
