Portugal’s PESSOAS 2030 programme has launched a new digital showcase of projects supported by the European Social Fund Plus (ESF+). It features projects that have real impact on people’s lives by promoting skills development, employment and social inclusion.

Visitors can explore:

  • projects with a budget over €500 000, which include videos to present their work and results;
  • initiatives that stand out for their innovation, impact or success;
  • personal stories that show how EU support is helping people move forward.

The platform also presents operations of strategic importance for Portugal’s development – from vocational training and support for people with disabilities, to internships and adult education.

With regular updates and multimedia content, the showcase will continue to grow as a dynamic space for sharing success stories and demonstrating the value of ESF+ funding.

By 2029, PESSOAS 2030 will invest around €6.7 billion to support a more inclusive, cohesive and equal society in Portugal – and this new platform helps bring that investment to life.
