This collection of papers represents the inaugural edition of the Brazilian English Language Teaching + Journal focused on the theme of Portuguese as an Additional Language. To commemorate the inclusion of this new feature of BELT, we present an overview of Portuguese as an Additional Language in Brazil and at the Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS). Moreover, we discuss the founding of Portuguese for Academic Purposes as a new area of research with repercussions for how we approach Portuguese for foreigners in academic contexts on the institutional, pedagogical as well as linguistic levels. With this discussion, we hope to encourage further research in this area such that we may accommodate the increasing foreign demand on Brazilian institutions.
