Students announce protest in Lisbon against the unfreezing of tuition fees
Student associations from five higher education institutions have called for a protest in Lisbon on October 21, 2026, opposing the government's proposal to unfreeze tuition fees starting in the 2027/2028 academic year. The proposed budget includes adjusting the maximum tuition fee (currently 697 euros) by the average inflation rate (CPI excluding housing) from 2026.
