The project Memória das Avenidas (developed since 2015) has been recording and collecting oral testimonies and memorabilia from the elder inhabitants of Avenidas Novas (Lisbon), following a collaborative strategy with the involvement of local citizens, NGOs and institutions, in order to understand the historical processes by which the city has been developed, occupied, transformed and lived. One of its main goals has been to build an open platform for raising awareness towards critical ways of dealing with local heritage in its various forms as a means to foster community building and identity. 11848874engopen sciencememorylocal historycommunity buildingcollaborative researchMemory from the Avenuesjournal articleA collaborative strategy towards local history and heritagehttps://memoriamedia.net/pdfarticles/ENG_MEMORIAMEDIAREVIEW_Memory_from_the_Avenues.pdf
