Paper long abstract:

By decolonizing the look, this will contribute to a New History of the Portuguese Empire and, of course, to a New History of Mozambique, research that can be applied in Education, Tourism and Museology. In short: The role of intellectuals, journalists, photographers highlighting the gender issue.

Problematic of the idea that the "camera is the eye of history", my interest as a researcher is to share it, presenting the research in progress that I have developed in the Mozambican Historical Archive, thus contributing to the Digital Archive, also under construction.
