The Organizing Committee of the 2026 Festa das Latas and Imposition of Insignias will promote a solidarity action of blood donation in Coimbra. The initiative aims to transform the traditional Festa das Latas into an opportunity for students to contribute with a gesture of solidarity.
Students are called to participate in this blood collection campaign, which aims to unite student tradition with the humanitarian cause. The solidarity action comes within the scope of the festivities associated with the Imposition of Insignias of 2026.
The Festa das Latas is a traditional event of the University of Coimbra, deeply rooted in the student culture of the city. By associating blood donation with this celebration, the organizing committee intends to raise awareness among the student community about the importance of this altruistic act.
