FCT launches the 2022 edition of the Arquivo.pt Prize

The Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT) has opened applications for the 2022 edition of the Arquivo.pt Prize. As in previous years, this Call aims to reward innovative research work based on the historical information preserved by the Arquivo.pt service and which highlights the importance of preserving and using information published on the web.

Entries must use the search and access services made publicly available by Arquivo.pt and demonstrate the usefulness of the service.

Applications are open until May 4, 2022, for individual or group work on any topic. In the end, three prizes will be awarded. The first is worth 10,000 euros, the second 3,000 euros, and the third 2,000 euros.

Arquivo.pt preserves millions of files collected from the web since 1996 and provides a public search service for this information.
