Catarina Marinho Takes the Helm

Catarina Marinho has made history by being elected as the president of the Juventude Popular (JP) on Sunday, marking a significant moment in the political landscape of Portugal. This election took place on the final day of the national congress of the structure.

Enide Menezes, who was expected to run, ultimately chose not to present a list for the national bodies after her global strategy motion was defeated the previous day. This election is particularly noteworthy as it marks the first time in 50 years that a woman will lead the youth wing of the CDS party, a notable achievement in a traditionally male-dominated arena.
