During these days, the teams behind the winning ideas had the opportunity to participate in mentoring sessions and workshops focused on the themes of their projects, in order to refine their ideas for the final event, where they will have the chance to present them to policymakers 🗣️.

At the same time, they also participated in workshops and activities focused on some of the gaps identified during the school sessions, specifically communication and public speaking skills, collaborating and working with people they don’t know well, and making their ideas appealing to different audiences!

These were days filled with excitement and hard work for these young people, who—thanks to their commitment and dedication—are already big winners 🏅.

We’d like to extend a special thank you to everyone who made these moments and workshops possible: Dr. Ricardo Caldeira, Cascais Jovem (Communication Team and Youth Participation Team), Marisa Luz, Cascais Próxima, Célia Correia, and Jorge Ferrão.
