A propuesta de la Red Portuguesa de Ciudades Educadoras, alcaldes de Portugal y Brasil se reunieron el pasado 26 de junio para compartir problemas y soluciones frente a la pandemia generada por el Covid-19 y sus efectos sobre las políticas educadoras.
Five cities presented how they have adapted to the new scenario, the solutions they have implemented and their role as educating agents. Speakers discussed various examples on the impact of the crisis on educating and cultural policies, the situation of homeless citizens, and other issues such as housing or economic activity, always considering the educating cities focus on people, equality, solidarity and building relationships and networks.
Most participants agreed that it’s very important to have networks in the territory that enable effective responses.
Around 50 Brazilian and Portuguese cities participated in the event and suggested organised similar meetings in the future to discuss other relevant topics.
