Description of the Organisation:
SINDEP is a national teachers' union representing kindergarten, primary, secondary and VET level education. Our main action is to support teachers in issues related to career training and development, working conditions, teachers' status, or pensions, among others. Recently, we have had an increase of members from VET private schools and have enlarged their actions in terms of strengthening social dialogue through a more direct involvement from the European Union. We have a strong representation of members teaching in foreign countries such as Switzerland, Luxembourg, Belgium, the UK, France and Germany, where there is a long tradition of Portuguese emigration and where there are many Portuguese teachers. SINDEP's main actions with members is to keep them informed about the policies and activities of the EAfA, namely commitments to digital and green apprenticeships and information on gender and social inclusion.
