new round of sessions of political education and citizenship

Lagoa High School
From 16/10/2018 to 16/10/2018
The Municipality of Lagoa will celebrate the European Local Democracy Week with the launch of a new series of sessions of Political Education and Citizenship with a lecture by Dr. Álvaro Monjardino, entitled "The Azores and its governance: 3 attempts". The lecture will be preceded by the presentation of the conclusions by the students that participated in the project in the previous biennium. Although the session is aimed at Secondary school students it will also be open to the public, and will take place in the Auditorium of the Lagoa Secondary School. These sessions aim to promote a growing youth interest in active citizenship, retrieving the Greco-Roman heritage perspective of intervention in the polis, a noble activity that promotes the building of critical mass.
