The municipal initiative aims to promote equal opportunities and recognize academic excellence among young students. Of the total amount, 20 Merit prizes, each valued at 1,500 euros, will be granted to students with economic difficulties attending higher education institutions in Portugal.
Additionally, 10 Excellence and Academic Merit Prizes, also at 1,500 euros each, will be awarded. These are intended for students who, in the previous academic year, achieved exceptional academic performance, according to the guidelines approved by the Municipal Council in November 2023.
Applications for these awards are now open and run until November 9. Interested parties can submit their applications in person at the municipality's Single Service Desk or through the electronic desk available on the Municipal Council's official website.
