The Union of Freguesias of Moscavide and Portela was distinguished in the Municipality of the Year Awards in two distinct categories: Education and Culture, for the project “SER, Sentir, Educar e Relacionar” and for the “Moscavide Street Party Sunset”, respectively.

The distinction covers two contrasting areas: early childhood education, with the project “SER, Sentir, Educar e Relacionar”, focused on teaching preschool children to recognize and manage their emotions and relate to others; and culture, for the event “Moscavide Street Party Sunset, A Vila é um Palco”, which annually draws thousands of people to the streets of Moscavide.
This is not the first time the Parish Council of Moscavide and Portela has been recognized. Throughout previous editions, the council had already received awards in areas such as Social Support, Health and Well-being, Active and Healthy Aging, Inclusion, Education, and Citizenship.
The council emphasizes that these multiple awards, edition after edition, are proof of consistent work and its active presence in the community's life, from the youngest to the seniors, covering social action to culture. The recognition is attributed to the workers, teams, partners, and the local community.
