This study aims to analyze how the internationalization of Higher Education (HE) is
addressed in Brazilian and Angolan journals. The analysis is based on a survey of articles published
in the Angolan electronic journal portal Pensador and in Google Scholar. Of the 20 articles selected,
the predominant methodology was qualitative, using the discursive textual analysis proposed by
Moraes and Galiazzi (2020). The results demonstrate a convergence in the conclusions, indicating the
need for a more structured and comprehensive approach to internationalization in Brazilian Higher
Education Institutions (HEIs). The study highlights the importance of clear policies and effective
organizational strategies, as well as social inclusion and the addressing of challenges such as racism.
Equitable international cooperation, focused on scientific and social development, is considered
essential. Therefore, it is concluded that there is a lack of efficient institutional policies to promote
internationalization in Brazil.
