People from diverse cultures took to the streets today in Lisbon in a march integrated in the Festival Todos, which the organization classified as a "celebration march". The event aims to promote integration and give visibility to the immigrant community in the Portuguese capital.
The event organization regretted the absence of politicians at the march, despite having made appeals for them to be present. The Lisbon city council expressed support for the initiative, but no political representative attended the event anyway.
The Festival Todos is an event that promotes cultural diversity and the inclusion of immigrant communities. The march was also intended to be a moment of recognition of the contribution of immigrants to Portuguese society.
