Patrons reinforce support for the University of Évora with 177 thousand euros and 81 scholarships for the 2025/26 academic year

The University of Évora held this Monday a public session at the Espírito Santo College to honor the patrons who contributed to supporting the institution and students in the 2025/2026 academic year. During the event, the financial contributions that allowed strengthening the university's operating conditions were highlighted.

The Student Social Support Fund, known as FASE-UÉvora, managed to gather approximately 177 thousand euros through 16 public and private entities. This amount represents a significant reinforcement in the available resources to support students at the Alentejo university.

As part of this support, 81 scholarships will be awarded for the 2025/2026 academic year, contributing to facilitating access and retention of students at the institution. These scholarships aim to support students facing economic difficulties.

The rector of the University of Évora, António Candeias, emphasized during the session the impact of these supports on study conditions and the ability to keep students at the university, recognizing the importance of the patrons' contribution to the institution's educational mission.

Why this matters

Students at the University of Évora directly benefit from these 81 scholarships and the 177 thousand euros in support, which can represent the difference between remaining in or abandoning their studies. For the Alentejo region, where higher education options are more limited, this financial support is particularly relevant to ensure access and retention of students at the institution.

Even if the minimum wage in the State rose to 1,030 euros in 2027 it would be "short", says Fesap

The Federation of Public Administration Trade Unions (Fesap) argues that the remuneration base in the public sector should increase beyond 1,030 euros in 2027, considering that this value would still be "short" given workers' needs. General secretary José Abraão argues that the pluriannual agreement in force, which provides for increases of 2.3% (rising from 934.99 to 995.51 euros), was signed in a different economic context and that inflation, potentially above 3%, is causing losses in purchasing power. Fesap will present its claims document for the 2027 State Budget at today's press conference in Lisbon, demanding increases beyond those provided for in the current agreement.
