The University of Macau (UM), in collaboration with the University of Coimbra (UC), Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation (Portugal), “la Caixa” Foundation (Spain) and Imprensa Nacional – Casa da Moeda (Portugal), has developed the digital platform ‘Camões Lab – Uma Máquina do Mundo (A Machine of the World)’, with the platform’s launch ceremony taking place at UC in Portugal recently.
Building on its long-standing partnership with UC, UM has been invited to serve as a core collaborator on this project, which aims to promote cultural preservation and digital humanities.
As the world’s first digital repository dedicated to the work of Luís de Camões, the Camões Lab represents a significant contribution to world literature and digital humanities, and also highlights UM’s active role in cross-cultural academic collaboration, according to UM.
Supported by the University of Macau Development Foundation, the project has been designated as a flagship project in UM’s 45th anniversary celebrations, further strengthening cooperation and ties between UM and higher education institutions in Portuguese-speaking countries and regions.
