FCH students featured in Visão

Vanessa Vollenschier, Margarida Mira and Luísa Lou Weng Sam, students from the Faculty of Human Sciences, have had their texts published by Visão magazine, as part of a partnership between the magazine and the optional subject of the degrees in Applied Foreign Languages and Social and Cultural Communication, Citizenships, Borders and the Global World.

This partnership was intended to reward the best essay written by the students in the class. However, Visão magazine ended up publishing the texts of the three students, due to their interest and quality.

Check out the texts using the links below:

Viver o presente, pensar o futuro: os jovens têm motivos para ser otimistas?, Vanessa Vollenschier

Ser otimista perante o caos: a perspetiva dos jovens, Margarida Mira
