Impressions from some participants…

“Very interesting workshop and of great social relevance. The Refood movement is motivating and deserves to be strongly publicized.

The practical exercises were very interesting and stimulating” “First time in my life, as student, I had the opportunity to express and talk about the needs in my neighbourhood“.

“In our team, each member has contributed and collaborated through interaction, creativity, participation,

sharing to solve problems to face to in daily project’s life…

This collaborative approach, in fact, increased the team’s creative performances and this participative interaction helped to highly integrate and increase one another’s knowledge and a common capability.”

Talking about ...

“I considered very positive raising awareness of potential new business ideas taking into account the principles of sharing economy”

The city of Lisbon will become, next Friday, a “giant size” cloakroom of coats. The Heat the Street – Streetwear your jacket initiative is back for the second consecutive year to once again promote the donation of warm clothing to “warm up who needs it the most.”

The event “The hottest rope, Lisbon” allows anyone to participate, hanging on the trees of the Avenue a sweater or jacket that no longer uses. “I’m here for you. If you’re on the street with cold, take me with you to warm you up” is the message written on the labels available for download on the initiative’s Facebook page.

Created by the young Sílvia Lopes, the project consists of hanging coats or other clothes that we have at home and no longer use in a kind of “rope to hang clothes,”.

Last Wednesday, students of the Polytechnic Institute spread the city the largest number of scarves they managed to raise during the two days of the initiative.

All the scarves included a Christmas message, written by the students of Tourism, dedicated to the homeless.

These will be distributed along with the coats, from 6:00 pm on December 23, in front of the Hard Rock Café.

Encouraged by social networks, the idea is also to create “a kind of human warmth” in the city, at a time
