Within the scope of the initiative “World Health Day: A Youth Agenda for Health in the Next Decade (2020-2030)“, suspended due to the current pandemic situation due to COVID-19, the National Health Council and the General Directorate of Education chose to adapt the initiative to the current context, considering that it continues to be of the greatest relevance for Health Education and the National Citizenship Education Strategy.

Therefore, a different challenge was launched to schools and students to create a short video that addressed the current issue of the COVID-19 pandemic and what everyone could do for their health and well-being, as well as for the health and well-being of be with your family, friends and community.

David, from the 7th L class, at Escola Básica de Mafra, participated and was distinguished by showing his video on the National Health Council website.

We congratulate David and his family for the quality, creativity and commitment with which they carried out this challenge.
