Under the theme ‘Good practices, institutionalisation and international cooperation’, the meeting provided a space for reflection and sharing on the consolidation of ApS as a pedagogical methodology integrated into the university mission and academic extension.
The programme included a background session on the institutionalisation of Service Learning at the Catholic University, the presentation of projects developed in Portugal and Mozambique — namely in the areas of Psychology, Social Work and Management — and a moment of dialogue between teachers and students from both institutions.
On 27 February, a visit was also made to the Social Centre of the Brotherhood of St. Torcato, a partner organisation of ApS, reinforcing institutional cooperation and the sharing of experiences between contexts and countries.
The initiative highlighted the joint commitment to a socially responsible university that promotes transformative learning and international cooperation.
