In the second semester of the 2025/2026 academic year, Santa Maria Health School is welcoming two international students as part of mobility programmes of the Association of Portuguese Language Universities (AULP), further strengthening its strategy for internationalisation and academic cooperation within the Lusophone community.

The Angolan student Vanda Manuel, currently enrolled at the University of International Integration of Afro-Brazilian Lusophony (UNILAB), in Brazil, is undertaking her mobility through the AULP Mobility Programme, fostering the exchange of experiences and contributing to the academic and cultural enrichment of the school community.

At the same time, Denise Albino, a Nursing student from the Polytechnic University of Mozambique, will also be hosted under the ProSaúde+ Programme, likewise integrated in AULP. This programme promotes mobility in the health field and the development of collaborative practices between partner institutions.

Santa Maria Health School would like to express its sincere appreciation to UNILAB and to the Polytechnic University of Mozambique for their trust and partnership, and looks forward to these mobilities as the starting point for new joint initiatives and for an increasingly strong and lasting cooperation.
