At the event MEMÓRIAS VIVAS, local communities, parish representatives and neighbours got together to enhance the local memories and intangible heritage of Trafaria, in an open meeting organized at the Old Casino on March 7th and 8th. The T-Factor Lisbon Roadshow started up with an evening hybrid event, a Café-concert-debate, “Real Utopias”, led by the artist Marta Miranda, with spontaneous interviews to 9 protagonists of the previous Podcast series (moderated by Carla Fernandes) and with the participation of representatives of the cultural, associative and artistic and activist movements of Trafaria. This event was attended by over a hundred residents of Trafaria and lasted for 4 hours in the evening, showing how important it was for the neighbourhood to publicly discuss their most pressing social issues at the moment. We believe it has therefore contributed to an even stronger community activation.

During the 2 day meeting, the Lisbon local coalition of T-Factor, led by NOVA University of Lisbon, shared the highlights and learnings of the pilot developed at the area, and EDA (our main stakeholder) presented the new book funded by T-Factor, "EDA 10: Until Now / From Now On".

The event also served as the setting for the première of the experimental documentary “At Trafaria 2023”, conceived by professors, researchers and students from NOVA FCSH, in close collaboration with local people, institutions and communities in Trafaria.
