The municipal government of Palmas has undertaken several administrative and social initiatives. Mayor Eduardo Siqueira Campos proposed a career plan for the city’s pension institute, Previpalmas, to establish 40 permanent positions and facilitate a new public competition. Additionally, the city launched the second edition of the Taça Cidade de Palmas football tournament for approximately 1,200 young athletes.

Furthering its administrative reforms, Palmas City Hall became a finalist for the 2026 IEL Prize in the ‘Innovative Company Internship’ category. This recognition follows the municipality’s restructuring of its internship program, which introduced in-person integration training, enhanced supervisor leadership, and improved accessibility measures for interns with disabilities.
