The University of Macau (UM) and Portugal’s University of Coimbra recently held a ceremony to mark the local university’s official entry as a member of the network established by the UNESCO Chair on Intercultural Dialogue on Heritages of Portuguese Influence (Patromónios) at the Portuguese university’s premises in Coimbra.
According to UM, the collaboration not only strengthens its ties with higher education institutions in Portuguese-speaking countries but also injects new momentum into the development of cultural heritage research and international academic exchange in Macau.
Meanwhile, UM and the University of Coimbra also exchanged letters of collaboration, expressing their joint commitment to establishing the Luís de Camões Universal Database, demonstrating the in-depth cooperation between the two universities in Portuguese cultural studies.
The project will create a comprehensive digital platform that will serve as an authoritative reference for Camões research and resources worldwide, while also preserving and promoting the works of this literary giant.
