Scout Park internationally awarded

Notícias de Coimbra12 September 2026 at 17:48

The project of the Scout Park of Mata do Paraíso, located in Vila Franca de Xira, was distinguished with an international design award. The park, which integrates elements of environmental education and scout activities, saw its design and planning work recognized internationally. This recognition highlights the work developed in creating a space that combines nature, education, and leisure for the community.

Why this matters

The international recognition values the municipal investment in green spaces and can boost tourism and the attractiveness of the region. Local scouts benefit from a renovated space, and the community of Vila Franca de Xira gains a reference park recognized globally.

How to protect your home from 'squatters': what Portuguese law says about illegal property occupation

Portugal reinforced legislation against illegal occupations with Law No. 67/2025, which amended the Penal Code and the Code of Criminal Procedure. The law punishes usurpation of real property with up to two years imprisonment (or three years if there is violence or if the property is a permanent residence), and up to four years if the action is professional or with profit-making intent. One of the main novelties is the possibility for the judge to order the immediate restitution of the property during the proceedings, based on strong indications of crime and proof of ownership. The complaint can be filed with the PSP, GNR or Public Prosecutor's Office, and it is necessary to gather property documents, photographs and witnesses. The owner can also resort to a vindication action or possession defense mechanisms, but direct action (forceful eviction) is exceptional and only permitted under very specific circumstances, risking criminal liability for the owner themselves.
