Bolieiro invites Azorean diaspora to return

Observador12 September 2026 at 11:46

The president of the Regional Government of the Azores visited the Azorean community in Toronto and Brampton, in Canada. During the visit, he inaugurated a replica of the Gates of the City of Ponta Delgada.

The trip's main objective was to establish contact with the Azorean diaspora and promote the return of emigrants to the Azores.

Bolieiro formally invited the emigrant Azoreans to return to their homeland, reinforcing the message of valuing ties with the emigrant community.

The replica of the Gates of the City was installed as a symbol of the connection between emigrants and their land of origin, representing the architectural heritage of Ponta Delgada.

Why this matters

Azorean readers, especially those with family members in the Canadian diaspora, learn that the president of the Regional Government is actively promoting contact with emigrant communities and inviting them to return. This type of official visit reinforces cultural ties and may have political and demographic implications for the region.

Sobral reinforces support to families in schools after demand increases by more than 50 percent

The municipality of Sobral de Monte Agraço reinforced support to families in schools for the new school year, after an increase of more than 50 percent in the demand for family support services in primary education. The council took over the direct management of these services after the departure of an external entity, which required an additional planning effort, complicated by the fact that more than 65 percent of registrations were made outside the deadline. In pre-school education it was possible to guarantee a place for all children, but in primary education waiting lists persist that the municipality intends to eliminate through the creation of additional groups and reinforcement of human resources. The school year also begins with interventions in schools and with the implementation, for the first time, of a school transport plan.
