The federal‑municipal initiative that launched in early July has kept broadening free education and business support across Brazil. Teacher development proceeded with a two‑day pedagogical journey for 900 educators in Pato Branco, an online literary‑education workshop and the opening of the Ensina Brasil trainee programme, which will place teachers in public schools with salaries of R$ 3‑7 thousand. New scholarships were announced by the University of Pernambuco, Maricá, Fundec and the Open University Project in Pará, all aimed at low‑income residents. Adult‑basic‑education (EJA) projects linked literacy to professional‑skill training in Bahia and Alagoas, while the Federal Public Ministry began 2026 internship selections in Acre and Espírito Santo with inclusive quotas. Sebrae continued its entrepreneurship push, adding a five‑day Empretec immersion in Dourados, an international mission to the Web Summit in Lisbon for 100 startups and the launch of a free business‑support centre (Sebrae Aqui) in Ubatuba to assist micro‑entrepreneurs. The IFSP created a “Rede de Formadores” trainer network and released preliminary enrollment results for 2026 technical courses. Technical and vocational training expanded sharply: IF Sul opened 11 free night‑time electrotechnics seats in Camaquã; IFES offered 797 free undergraduate places across 16 campuses; Instituto Elon Soares in Goiás provided 90 free construction‑civil slots. Petrobras partnered with Senai on the “Autonomia e Renda Petrobras” programme, delivering free courses and monthly scholarships in 46 municipalities, while Senai announced 22 894 free apprenticeship slots nationwide for 2026. Language access was boosted with free basic English courses in Amazonas and free English, Spanish and Libras classes in Acre. Digital‑inclusion workshops for seniors continued in Paraná, completing a multi‑sector effort to increase free training, scholarships and entrepreneurial support for vulnerable Brazilians. Paraná.
