Cultural and Social Activities

Throughout the academic year, the Mentoring Programme organises a range of cultural activities designed to help students integrate, strengthen the bond between mentors and mentees, foster team spirit and provide opportunities to socialise outside the academic setting.

These activities are open to the student community and provide an opportunity to meet new people, explore Lisbon and develop skills such as communication, collaboration and problem-solving in an informal setting.

Note: The activities listed are indicative and are subject to change. Information on dates, registration and conditions of participation will be announced throughout the semester.

Escape Room

Put your teamwork, creativity and logical thinking to the test in a challenge where every clue counts. A dynamic activity that encourages communication and cooperation between Mentors and Mentees, as they explore the Technical Centre and try to ‘escape’ from the Central Pavilion.

Peddy Paper

Discover the campus and/or the city through a route packed with challenges, puzzles and team tasks. A fun way to explore new places, encourage mutual support and forge new connections.

Beira-Rio Run & Relay Games

An outdoor activity combining a run accessible to all with relay games and team challenges. The aim is to promote healthy lifestyle habits, strengthen team spirit and provide an opportunity for socialising in a different setting from the usual one.

Open-Air Cinema / Portuguese Cinema

A film screening dedicated to socialising and exploring film culture. Depending on the programme, this may include an open-air cinema screening or the screening of a Portuguese film, followed by an informal get-together for participants.
