Gentileza, respeito e inclusão. Esta é a base de tudo o que fazemos e tentamos sempre que os alunos cresçam com esta noção de que somos uma comunidade muito diversa. — Isabel Morgado, Head of School, for Jornal de Notícias

EU and I, November 19th, with a view over the Douro — is it a date?   The 64th Edition of the Model European Parliament (iMEP) is taking place in Porto, from the 19th to the 26th of November, bringing together students from across Europe for an inspiring experience in dialogue, diplomacy, and democratic engagement. Hosted by CLIP Oporto International School in one of Portugal’s most historic and vibrant cities, this edition offers delegates the opportunity to step into the role of Members of the European Parliament and actively debate the key political, social, economic, and environmental issues facing Europe today.   Over the course of the event, delegates will collaborate in international committees, develop resolutions, engage in structured debates, and practise consensus‑building while representing diverse perspectives. Beyond policy discussions, the iMEP experience promotes critical thinking, public speaking, cultural exchange, and a deeper understanding of European values.   The 64th iMEP taking place in Porto stands as a celebration of youth voice, cooperation, and active citizenship, empowering young people to shape ideas for Europe’s future.
