Lisbon closed the door to Vocational Education

Observador6 September 2026 at 00:11

Lisbon closed the door to Vocational Education. The most populous region of the country, with more than 3 million inhabitants, offers only 21 vocational places across all public university and polytechnic higher education. This scarcity of provision contrasts with the region's population size, highlighting a significant gap in access to vocational education in the Portuguese capital.

Armando Marques Passes Away, One of the Greatest Figures in the History of Tourism in Póvoa de Varzim

Armando Marques passed away at the age of 97, one of the most remarkable figures in the history of tourism in Póvoa de Varzim. Born in 1929, he joined the Municipal Council in 1953 and headed the Municipal Tourism Services between 1966 and 1987, a period during which he consolidated the city's image as a reference tourist destination. In parallel, he was connected to the travel agency Rondatur and accompanied the Grupo Folclórico Poveiro for more than half a century, serving as presenter and ambassador in Portugal and abroad. He also developed intense journalistic activity, collaborating with several media outlets and authoring the book "Crónicas Poveiras: o passado no presente" (Poveiro Chronicles: the past in the present). He received the Medal of Poveiro Recognition in 2016 and the Coat of Arms of Póvoa de Varzim in 2018, recognitions that attest to his legacy in promoting Poveiro identity and traditions.

This is an opinion by Paulo Ferrero about the urban transformation of Chiado.
