Last update: 7 hours agoMunicipal Address Fix: Monchique’s council has finished a long street-naming drive, assigning 48 new names in Marmelete and Monchique to solve years of “unnamed roads” and house-number inconsistencies that made mail delivery and emergency locating harder. The regularisation began in 2021 under a dedicated “Toponymy and Cultural Heritage” portfolio, with names drawn from local history, memory, notable figures, traditional work, and natural heritage. AI for Students (Cabo Verde included): Google expanded its free one-year Google AI Plus offer to students in 27 African countries, including Cabo Verde, with Gemini tools, higher usage limits, and 400GB cloud storage via Drive, Gmail and Photos. Atlantic Weather Watch: Tropical Storm Dolly has formed near the Cabo Verde Islands, expected to be short-lived but bringing heavy rain risk to the Leeward Islands and parts of the Caribbean. Remote Work Snapshot: A Remitly study using LinkedIn listings found Cabo Verde among the top African markets for remote job postings (about 94.7%), while South Africa ranked lowest (17.6%). Maritime Skills Update: The IMO says seafarer assessment and certification must evolve as automation, digital tech, autonomous shipping, and alternative fuels change what crews need to know, with a regional workshop including Cabo Verde.
