Sumário

The Centre for Research in Anthropology (CRIA), integrated within the  IN2PAST – Associate Laboratory for Research and Innovation in Heritage, Arts, Sustainability and Territory , operates as a distributed and networked research infrastructure, bringing together four universities — Iscte, NOVA FCSH, University of Coimbra, and University of Minho — in a collaborative R&D framework. Its infrastructure includes four specialized laboratories that support advanced methodological and technical work in key areas of anthropological research. These labs are central to CRIA’s scientific strategy, fostering empirical research, public engagement, and methodological innovation.CRIA benefits from strong synergies with NOVA FCSH and Iscte for the collaborative development of advanced tools for audiovisual production, digital archiving, and fieldwork methodologies. The integration of artificial intelligence and geolocation technologies enhances CRIA’s capacity for complex anthropological data analysis, spatial mapping, and interactive research environments.This collaborative framework strengthens CRIA’s role within national and European research infrastructures and reinforces its commitment to Open Science, ensuring that data, methods, and results are accessible, interoperable, and reusable across disciplines and borders. By promoting FAIR data principles, open access, and interoperable digital environments, CRIA contributes to a more transparent, collaborative, and inclusive scientific culture. These resources will support CRIA’s strategic projects for the next five years, such as the Digital Ethnographic Archive or the Atlas of Socio-environmental Interfaces.
