Applications open for university edition of Entrepreneurial Academy
The registration period for the Digital Ideation Programme as part of the university edition of the Entrepreneurial Academy - School of Leaders is open until April 7. Applications for this programme, promoted by the Regional Secretariat for Youth, Housing and Employment, through the Regional Directorate for Youth, are free and must be completed digitally through the Youth Portal, available at juventude.azores.gov.pt. Young people born or with tax residency in the Azores, enrolled in a Portuguese or foreign higher education institution and aged 28 or under can participate in this entrepreneurship education programme in a school context. The Digital Ideation Programme takes place in a 100% online bootcamp format from April 9 to May 7 after working hours. It will cover thematic modules such as "Design Thinking - ideas generator," "Key Resources - the importance of the team," "Financial Plan - the finances of a start-up," "Business Model - Producing the MVP," "Power of Marketing - How to pitch." The final Pitch will determine the best projects that will take part in i9-Açores - the Regional Competition for Innovative Ideas, which takes place from May 19 to 22 in Praia da Vitória, Terceira Island. The Entrepreneurial Academy - School of Leaders promotes skills through a learning-by-doing methodology with educational programmes adapted to each level of education. The university edition is an opportunity to help train young university students with differentiating skills, think about ways to maximise the Region's resources and wealth, speed up the connection between young students and the business and professional world, and encourage business creation and self-employment. The university edition of the Entrepreneurial Academy  - School of Leaders, covering all levels of education, including vocational education and projects developed by Private Social Solidarity Institutions (IPSS), has already mobilised more than 60 young people in the two previous editions. In 2023 and 2024, 18 participants presented business ideas and 9 teams participated in the i9.Açores competition.

Young Azoreans mobilise to tackle disinformation and fake news
A group comprising more than 70 young people in the Azores has created a "Youth Manifesto for Information and Media Literacy in the Azores" as part of the "You're On! Get Informed, Debate and Decide" project.  The document delivered today to the Regional Secretary for Youth, Housing and Employment, Maria João Carreiro, in Ponta Delgada, at a session attended by the Regional Director for Youth, Eládio Braga, shares ideas, concerns and suggestions for media education actions and initiatives. The goal is to promote and stimulate the exercise of citizenship based on young people's potential to question, analyse and assess information. ‘’Drawing up this Manifesto confirms young people's interest in thinking about, proposing and mobilising responses to common challenges. In this case, the challenge is to prevent disinformation, fake news and populism from jeopardising the exercise of young citizenship, which must be critical and conscious. Truthfulness and rigour in information are essential for responsible participation," stated Maria João Carreiro. The Regional Secretary was grateful for the "mobilisation of young Azoreans" to address a  "problem that challenges everyone to take action in a coordinated manner to defend and safeguard a plural democracy that embraces difference." She defended that "the more young people are heard and called into decision-making processes, the more appropriate public youth policies will be." The Manifesto suggests the development of actions to counter disinformation and promote media education at three levels of intervention - training and education; raising awareness; regulation and the establishment of partnerships - in what is the result of the work of the participants in the "I'm ON! Meeting of Young People and Association Leaders," which took place on Terceira Island between November 21 and 24.  According to the authors of the Manifesto, the document will be delivered to various public and private organisations, including the media. The ‘declaration of commitments presented’ is an invitation to action and collective commitment,’ as “we all take a decisive role in building a more informed, fair and inclusive society,” explained the Manifesto. The "You're On! Get Informed, Debate and Decide" project, co-financed by Erasmus+, Youth, Sport and the European Solidarity Corps (CES), was implemented by the Regional Secretariat for Youth, Housing and Employment, through the Regional Directorate for Youth, during 2024. It included initiatives such as "I'm ON," which brought together 100 participants from the Azores, Madeira and Mainland Portugal, including young people, politicians and experts, as well as the "Are you ON?!" information campaign.
