Team Cabo Verde 2018

Cabo Verde is an island country made up of ten islands, in which nine are inhabited with just over half a million inhabitants. The islands were discovered over five hundred years ago by Portuguese discoverers, having become independent forty-two years ago. A country with few natural resources, human potential is the biggest bet for development; this is due to the great commitment of the state in the struggle for human development as a way to fight against poverty. The students of Team Cabo Verde come from the city of Mindelo on the island of São Vicente.
