Al'-'Ulya Magazine, founded in 1992, was conceived for a specialized segment of the public, and also has the particularity of attracting readers with a common interest in the study and knowledge of Social Sciences, Humanities and Historical-Cultural Heritage.
Joaquim Romero Magalhães was one of the great promoters and one of the most prestigious collaborators of Al'-'Ulya Magazine. The Algarve historian and researcher was born in Loulé, in 1942, and received the title of Doctor Honoris Causa by the University of Algarve, in December of last year.
A few days later, he would eventually die, in Coimbra, at the age of 76.
In honor of the Algarve intellectual, the Câmara de Loulé launched the Professor Doutor Joaquim Romero Magalhães Award, whose first edition will take place in 2020.
