Sesc Pará has launched its registration for the 'Universidade 50+' program, a specialized initiative designed for older adults. This affordable program, with a monthly fee of R$ 50, provides older citizens, particularly those who have worked in commerce, a valuable opportunity to engage in educational and enriching activities aimed at improving their overall well-being and quality of life. The registration deadline is set for March 2, specifically for the 2026 class, highlighting the program's long-term commitment to older adults.

The activities will be held at Sesc Doca in Belém, focusing on fostering autonomy and promoting a sense of ownership among participants. Scheduled for Mondays and Wednesdays from 2:30 PM to 4:30 PM, the course is set to commence on March 4 and will run until December 9. The curriculum emphasizes reflection, learning, and self-care, engendering an environment conducive for older attendees to thrive through social interaction and knowledge acquisition.

Not only does the 'Universidade 50+' provide an educational structure, but it also aims to bolster self-esteem and instill a sense of belonging among its members. This initiative addresses the growing need for programs that advocate for healthy aging and community connection, reflecting a progressive approach towards valuing senior citizens in Brazilian society, particularly in urban contexts like Belém.
