University of Coimbra and integration are "something for everyone"

Diário de Coimbra9 September 2026 at 20:22

The University of Coimbra faces significant challenges in integrating its students, both national and international. For Portuguese students, integration already represents a "challenge" within the institution.

The situation becomes even more complex for international students who choose UC from different parts of the world. These students face additional barriers of cultural and linguistic adaptation.

The UC-PAI program was created precisely to support this integration process. Within this program, various groups work actively to help students overcome these difficulties and feel part of the academic community in Coimbra.

The truth of post-truth

For almost a decade, Sweden has faced a persistent wave of armed violence and explosions, with at least one of these incidents – bombs or shootings – occurring weekly in the country. This reality contrasts with the image of a peaceful and progressive society often associated with Sweden, illustrating how public perception can diverge significantly from the actual situation of a country.

The grape harvest season has begun. JSM followed the work of picking grapes at a farm in Santa Marinha

The grape harvest season has begun and the Santa Marinha Newspaper followed the work of picking grapes at a farm in Santa Marinha, in the municipality of Seia. The article describes the community ritual of manual harvesting, where workers bent over the vines cut bunches of red grapes with scissors and place them in buckets, then transported to larger containers and then to the winery. The workers highlighted the magnificent colour and high sugar content of this year's grapes. The break for a fortified mid-morning snack and the lunch of feijoada were highlighted as essential moments of fellowship, with an older worker stating that "harvesting without good group food is not a harvest". The article emphasises that this ancient tradition unites generations, celebrates the land and sustains the local economy.

Fall in PISA 2025 results "affected both public and private school students"

A report on PISA 2025 results reveals that the decline in student performance affected both public and private schools overall, without major differences between the two types of institutions. However, when the analysis focuses exclusively on students in science-humanities programs, the disparities between public and private school students become more pronounced, highlighting inequalities that are not visible in an aggregated analysis.
