今晚，在由中國英國商會(huì)舉辦的“2021年中國社會(huì)影響力大獎(jiǎng)”評(píng)選活動(dòng)中，寧波諾丁漢大學(xué)成功榮獲“社區(qū)文化獎(jiǎng)”。

社區(qū)文化獎(jiǎng)提名旨在表彰通過藝術(shù)、體育、音樂、跨文化交流、民間合作等方式全力培養(yǎng)社區(qū)意識(shí)和大力推廣文化活動(dòng)的社會(huì)組織。同時(shí)入圍該獎(jiǎng)項(xiàng)的還有賽默飛世爾科技公司和太古地產(chǎn)等5家單位。

寧波諾丁漢大學(xué)在文化遺產(chǎn)保護(hù)領(lǐng)域有過許多探索與突破。這不僅體現(xiàn)在我校學(xué)者利用其技術(shù)與學(xué)術(shù)知識(shí)在保護(hù)和促進(jìn)當(dāng)?shù)匚幕�作出的杰出努力和貢獻(xiàn)，更體現(xiàn)在寧波諾丁漢大學(xué)所有師生用創(chuàng)造力和熱情影響著整個(gè)社區(qū)乃至城市的人參與到對(duì)文化遺產(chǎn)的保護(hù)中。

以寧諾英偉達(dá)混合現(xiàn)實(shí)聯(lián)合實(shí)驗(yàn)室為例。該實(shí)驗(yàn)室致力于將數(shù)字化引入到文化遺產(chǎn)領(lǐng)域，再現(xiàn)各類世界遺產(chǎn)和文化古跡，由全球知名虛擬現(xiàn)實(shí)學(xué)者莊以仁（Eugene Ch’ng）教授領(lǐng)銜。成立以來，實(shí)驗(yàn)室在文化遺產(chǎn)數(shù)字化領(lǐng)域進(jìn)行前沿研究，與此同時(shí)團(tuán)隊(duì)利用數(shù)字化技術(shù)保護(hù)寧波的歷史和文化，打造了一批極具辨識(shí)度的項(xiàng)目，如重現(xiàn)寧波元代三江口、追尋江南記憶中的外婆家等等，用新穎的方式向世界展示與傳播寧波。

而寧諾甬學(xué)研究中心儼然已成為所有熱愛甬學(xué)的海內(nèi)外專家學(xué)者間互動(dòng)交流的首選平臺(tái)。該中心由寧波諾丁漢大學(xué)國際傳播學(xué)賀龍飛（Thomas Hirzel）博士、建筑學(xué)謝晶博士和計(jì)算機(jī)科學(xué)David Towey教授領(lǐng)銜，團(tuán)隊(duì)通過攝影測量和數(shù)字捕獲等技術(shù)，建立了寧波市古代和現(xiàn)今即將消逝的建筑數(shù)據(jù)庫。團(tuán)隊(duì)還與寧波博物館啟動(dòng)了長期計(jì)劃，掃描和記錄寧波獨(dú)有的“青瓷”，以期將其數(shù)字化收藏存檔。中心還聚集了跨界跨學(xué)科的甬學(xué)愛好者，共同向世界推介寧波燦爛的文化遺產(chǎn)。

自2019年年末寧波諾丁漢大學(xué)與寧波幫博物館簽署共建“人文素質(zhì)教育基地”后，雙方在人文素質(zhì)教育、志愿服務(wù)和社會(huì)實(shí)踐交流合作上展開了深入的合作。寧諾教學(xué)副校長Cohen Tan博士為項(xiàng)目總協(xié)調(diào)。國際傳播系系主任Filippo Gilardi博士則大力推進(jìn)了選修模塊“數(shù)字?jǐn)⑹�、�?shù)字素養(yǎng)”在寧波幫博物館的落地。他多次帶學(xué)生赴博物館開展社會(huì)實(shí)踐，在他的悉心指導(dǎo)下，學(xué)生豐富的創(chuàng)意大大增加了寧波幫故事的傳播度，也吸引了本地和國際觀眾了解寧波幫故事。比如，就有學(xué)生追蹤記錄下老寧波人的食譜，并將這些食譜作為明信片分享給線上和線下參觀者。

據(jù)了解，此次寧波諾丁漢大學(xué)獲評(píng)中國英國商會(huì)舉辦的“2021年中國社會(huì)影響力大獎(jiǎng)” 的“社區(qū)文化獎(jiǎng)”，是對(duì)寧波諾丁漢大學(xué)在文化遺產(chǎn)保護(hù)及推廣工作方面所作出的杰出貢獻(xiàn)給予的充分肯定。未來，寧諾將繼續(xù)致力于利用高科技手段進(jìn)行文化遺產(chǎn)保護(hù)；發(fā)展研究中國和寧波的文化遺產(chǎn)；提高年輕人對(duì)歷史文化遺產(chǎn)的認(rèn)識(shí)和參與程度，成為具有國際影響力的文化遺產(chǎn)保護(hù)品牌。

University of Nottingham Ningbo China wins 2021 China Social Impact Awards

16 September: University of Nottingham Ningbo China (UNNC) received the Community and Culture Award presented by British Chamber of Commerce in China at the 2021 China Social Impact Awards ceremony held in Beijing.

Community and culture are the two pillars that enable us to live a rich human experience. As the winner of this award, UNNC is the organisation that has gone to the greatest length to foster a sense of community and promote cultural activities. It has done this by engaging in cross-cultural exchange, civil society partnerships and building local community support networks. UNNC was nominated as a finalist alongside Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. and Swire Properties.

In the area of preservation of cultural heritage, UNNC is not only able to leverage its world-leading technical and academic expertise, but also the creativity and enthusiasm of its students and staff. At UNNC there are global leaders in the use of technology in the preservation of cultural heritage, and the impact of their work in the area has both global and local impacts.

The NVIDIA Joint-Lab on Mixed Reality has been committed to introducing digitalisation into the field of cultural heritage. Professor Eugene Ch’ng, the director of the NVIDIA Joint Lab and the Digital Heritage Centre, has been at the forefront of the field of the digitalisation of cultural heritage for over 15 years, developing Virtual Reality projects in the areas of architecture, archaeology and cultural heritage. Prof Ch’ng has been a pioneer of developing this technology in Europe and UK and is actively transferring his expertise to China through a series of collaborative and community-based programmes.

There is also the Centre of Ningbo Studies that is led by Dr Thomas Hirzel, Dr Jing Xie and Professor Dave Towey whose work centres on the use of Photogrammetry and Digital Capture to preserve and database cultural artefacts and architecture, but also to build bridges between communities of enthusiasts and scholars, and promote Ningbo’s rich cultural heritage both within China and abroad. They have organised numerous cultural and community events to showcase their work and raise awareness of the Ningbo’s past as a maritime trading hub. The Centre is currently providing technical workshops and consultancy for staff in the Ningbo Museum on Photogrammetry and Digital Capture so as to archive Ningbo’s priceless collection of Celadon.

Since 2019, UNNC has also established cooperation with Ningbo Bang Museum in developing humanistic quality education, community services and social practices with the support and coordination of Dr K. Cohen Tan, Interim Vice Provost for Teaching & Learning. Dr Filippo Gilardi, Head of School of International Communications, has been actively promoting the development of the internship practice module “Digital Narrative, Digital Literacy” at the Ningbo Bang museum. He also took students to the Ningbo Bang Museum to carry out social practices multiple times. Under his guidance, the playful creativity of these students has brought the museum content alive for younger generations of Ningbonese, and greatly increased engagement with the story of the Ningbo Bang.

The Community and Cultural Award is recognition for the fantastic effort put in by UNNC in terms of preservation and promotion of cultural heritage through a variety of initiatives. In the future, UNNC remains committed to developing the best practice in the use of technology in the preservation of cultural heritage, focusing on scholarship on Chinese and Ningbonese cultural heritage and to act as a bridge for local and international communities of scholars. The University hopes to raise awareness of and engagement with Ningbo’s historical legacy amongst younger generations of Ningbonese, throughout China, and with international communities.
