“…Para alguns autores (cf. Ávila & Alves, 1993;Cachado, 2017;Lourenço & Cachado, 2012), há uma centralidade das trading companies de base familiar na organização empresarial indiana. Comparativamente, o financiamento através de grupos étnicos, ou utilizando redes coétnicas internacionais, parece mais comum no caso nepalês.…”

“…According to Fonseca (2009b), this explains that only after the conclusion of the decolonization process in 1975 did Lisbon's inhabitants become aware that they had been living in the capital of a colonial empire. The impact of postcolonial migratory flows on the urban landscape of Lisbon has been studied by several authors, who measured it in terms of aspects such as interethnic conflict (Malheiros and Mendes, 2007), forms of access to housing (Cachado and Frangella, 2019), intraurban mobility patterns (Cachado, 2014), residential ethnicization (Malheiros et al ., 2012; 2013) or the development of commercial enclaves linked to certain migrant groups (Cachado, 2017). Authors such as Pardue (2019) who wrote on racial issues, have referred to the emergence of a new sense of ‘black Lisbon’, which derives directly from the effects of postcolonial migration on the Portuguese capital.…”

International migrations are transforming the urban landscape in cities all around the world. In this article I address the effect of Cape Verdean migration on the built environment of Lisbon's periphery. Specifically, I analyse a traditional practice of mutual aid originating in rural Cape Verde, the djunta‐mon system, as a device of migrant urbanism projected onto the urban landscape of the Cova da Moura neighbourhood. In this article, which is based on ethnographic fieldwork, I discuss the role of the djunta‐mon in the urban evolution of the neighbourhood from its formation in the 1970s to the present day. The data collected shows that this practice has had an important effect on the appropriation, functional delimitation and significance of the urban space by residents. The results thus point to the importance of understanding how the cultures and identities of human groups crystallize through the processes of social production of space.

“…Most diaspora members are products of the employment-based migration route formed when the Portuguese Empire was still functioning in Africa and the Indian subcontinent. It can be said that the majority of diaspora members currently reside in Lisbon [8,9], London and Leicester; however, there are still a significant number of Diuenses who still reside in areas of Mozambique and other parts of the world.…”

The process of heritage interpretation through the digital simulation method has been tested as an environment required for the process of restoration, conservation and design for the future of a heritage site. However, this paper questions whether the digitally collected data and heritage interpretation/ representations which are a useful tool for professionals like architects and developers lead to critical evaluation, inspiration and engagement for the heritage owner/layman. The former Portuguese colony of Diu Island, UT, India, presents an array of tangible and intangible heritage featuring a Portuguese fortification and churches along with the historic urban fabric of Diu Town as a complex and historically relevant primary case study. The various methods of heritage data capture and the opportunities the outputs create for interpretation/representation will be evaluated in this paper. The methods of capturing data to interpret heritage values covered in the paper are traditional building survey, laser scanning, photospheres and photogrammetry. The discussion begins with inherent advantage and disadvantages within each method of heritage data capture, ways in which the heritage owner and the local community can be active participants in the data-collection process and, most importantly, the output of the datacollecting techniques. This leads on to the core of the paper which questions the output of the collected data and its wider opportunities for representation of the values of heritage to heritage owners/layman. The paper evaluates the outputs of the digitally/non-digitally collected data to understand the opportunities of heritage representation that can allow for layman engagement and inspiration towards heritage interpretation and conservation in a part of the world where such practices have not been common in the past. Furthermore to gain professional advise on structural and design work to adapt or conserve the heritage structure.
