Integration of immigrants into the Tourism sector
A new initiative to address labor shortages in vital sectors
The Portuguese government has announced a new initiative to support the integration of immigrants into the tourism sector by offering a monthly scholarship of €522.50. This program, set to begin in January, aims to provide specialized training to immigrants who wish to build careers in tourism, a key pillar of Portugal's economy2.
The training program, part of the broader "Accelerate the Economy" strategy, is designed to address labor shortages in vital sectors while fostering economic growth. The initiative includes technical and practical training, language proficiency courses, and socio-cultural integration education. Participants will also receive travel assistance to reduce financial barriers2.
The program will last approximately three months, followed by a one-month internship to provide hands-on experience in the tourism industry. This comprehensive approach ensures that participants are well-prepared for employment in the sector.
The Portuguese government has allocated €2.5 million from the Turismo de Portugal budget to fund this initiative. The goal is to improve the living and working conditions of migrants and refugees, contributing to their social and professional inclusion in Portugal.
By investing in the skills and integration of immigrants, the government aims to create long-term economic and social benefits. This program not only supports the tourism sector but also positions Portugal as a role model for hosting and integrating immigrants.
