Description
The Research Centre MNEMOSYNE is a newly established institution under the unique UNESCO Chair on Digital Cultural Heritage at the Cyprus University of Technology, established by Cyprus Law (CY Law) as a permanent structure for research, education, innovation and development in cultural heritage. It is the flagship outcome of the H2020 ERA Chair on Digital Cultural Heritage, a landmark EU-funded project and the result of the strategic merger of three pioneering labs:
The Digital Cultural Heritage Lab,
The Earth Observation Cultural Heritage Research Lab, and
The Mechanical Engineering Design and Additive Manufacturing Lab
at the School of Engineering and Technology
Over the last decade, MNEMOSYNE has received numerous awards, signed over 200 bilateral agreements at local, regional, and international levels, and is the proud organiser of the prestigious EuroMed Conference on Digital Heritage.
MNEMOSYNE has a portfolio of over 45 projects and has secured more than €15.7 million in funding over the last decade, operating financially independently from the Cyprus Government and the University.
The Centre’s work focuses on digital documentation in Cultural Heritage, memory, identity, long-term monitoring and preservation, Use and Re-Use, such as 3D Fabrication, leveraging advanced 3D technologies and multi-, interdisciplinary collaboration. With a mission to safeguard and promote cultural narratives, the Centre aspires to become a global leader in digital heritage, bridging academia, research, innovation, policy, stakeholders and public engagement for a sustainable cultural future.
