Coimbra has 5 weeks of alternative activities for students who don't want to be hazed

Notícias de Coimbra11 September 2026 at 12:19

Coimbra once again has, for the second consecutive year, Criactividade, an integration project run by a collective of students that proposes alternative activities to academic hazing.

The program offers five weeks of activities for students who don't want to be hazed, providing a different form of integration into university life in the city.

Criactividade is a student project that emerges as an alternative to traditional hazing, allowing new students to get to know Coimbra and their peers without having to go through the typical reception rituals for freshmen.

This initiative reflects a growing trend in various Portuguese universities, where some students seek forms of integration that don't involve traditional hazing practices.

Gulf countries must meet with Iran over navigation agreement

The foreign ministers of the Gulf Cooperation Council countries will meet with their Iranian counterpart in Oman to seek an agreement on maritime traffic in the Strait of Hormuz, which Tehran blocked in response to the war initiated by the United States and Israel against the Islamic Republic. Iran and Oman are finalizing an interim pact establishing a corridor for commercial ships, intending for the GCC to join the agreement to pressure Washington to lift the blockade on Iranian ports. The Gulf countries want a temporary pact that allows the circulation of ships while negotiating the future status of the strait, through which a fifth of world oil production passed, hoping the initiative will reduce tensions between the US and Iran and contribute to the reopening of Hormuz, in a context where Houthi rebels have consolidated presence in the Bab el-Mandeb strait area, causing the price of oil to exceed 107 dollars per barrel.
