The Movement for Democracy (MpD) in Cabo Verde has announced plans to establish the José Filomeno School for leadership training and development. This move is part of the party's efforts to strengthen its leadership and institutional capacity. The school, named after José Filomeno Monteiro, will provide a comprehensive training program for party members and cadres. The program will focus on politics, democracy, governance, and leadership.

According to the proposal to revise the MpD's statutes, the José Filomeno School will have a five-level curriculum structure. The first level will focus on integrating new members and sympathizers into the party. The second level will provide training for cadres on democracy, institutions, constitution, and party values. The third level will offer specialized training in strategic areas for the country's development. The fourth level will focus on advanced leadership and governance training for future leaders and local authorities.

The fifth level of the program will provide high-level strategic training for senior officials and deputies. The school will also have a digital platform to ensure equal access to all members, regardless of their location. This platform will offer distance learning courses, digital libraries, webinars, and hybrid programs. The MpD aims to provide its members with the necessary skills and knowledge to contribute to the country's development.

The José Filomeno School will also partner with universities, higher education institutions, leadership academies, and international foundations to provide certification programs and access to global best practices in governance, economy, and sustainability. This cooperation will enable MpD members to acquire knowledge and skills in areas such as governance, economy, and environmental sustainability.

The school's training programs will be certified, and completion of the programs will be recorded in each member's individual registry. The frequency of these programs may also be considered a valuable asset for internal functions and selection of candidates for public office. The MpD believes that this initiative will contribute to the development of a more qualified and effective leadership.
