This initiative offers participants an enriching experience by placing them in direct contact with local organisations. According to the municipality, the goal is to help young people take on small responsibilities, integrate into work teams, engage in practical tasks, and develop both personal and professional skills that will benefit their future.


The programme will run in two separate periods: from 30 June to 11 July, and from 14 to 25 July.

“Valoriza-TE” is organised in partnership with several regional associations, including the Leiria Region Business Association/Chamber of Commerce and Industry, the Association of Commerce, Industry and Services of the Leiria Region, and the Portuguese Association of Hospitality, Restaurants and Similar Establishments.

By encouraging hands-on involvement and skill-building in a real work environment, this programme aims to empower young people while strengthening ties between the community and local institutions.
