Universidade Católica Portuguesa (Portuguese Catholic University)

Climate action

The Portuguese Catholic University accepts, in its Strategic Plan, a specific Agenda for sustainability in different areas (governance, environmental, social, and economic), committed to the implementation of goals that ensure respect for humans and social equity, the environment, and economic development for the common good. 

In the framework of the multiple initiatives that it has taken on throughout its history, it recently integrated, in Porto, the creation of the INSURE Hub, a platform that brings together innovation and scientific and practical knowledge for its community and its partners, namely in consulting services and high-level training dedicated to innovation, sustainability, and regeneration. It brings together about 40 national and international partners.

Testimony

We are strongly committed to the purposes of the Porto Climate Pact. 

We want to bring scientific and management value to our partners, to our city.
