To raise public awareness and emphasize the importance of these forms of care, the Institute for European and Atlantic Culture (ICEA) will host a event on April 18 in Ericeira.

All interested individuals are welcome to attend the free event from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. at the Auditório Municipal de Santa Marta.
