Contacto, Virgule and Luxembourg Times have published a profile of Emblem: Digital Souvenirs and the Luxembourg Passport in Portuguese, French and English.

Reported by journalist Tiago Rodrigues, with photographs by Chris Karaba, the feature follows Daniel Michels and explains how Emblem turns visits to real places into a cultural collection held on a phone.

Published on 25 July 2026, the Luxembourg Times edition introduces the Luxembourg Passport to English-language readers as a cultural discovery experience for tourists and residents.

The article traces the idea back to Expo 2020 Dubai and follows the project's development through the Covid period, its selection for the Youth for Peace: UNESCO Intercultural Leadership Programme, and the launch of a live passport spanning Luxembourg.

The coverage presents the Luxembourg Passport as a cultural guide for visitors, newcomers, residents, and families, while also exploring Emblem's ambition to create cultural passports for places and communities around the world.

The feature is available in English on Luxembourg Times, Portuguese on Contacto and French on Virgule.
