Home > News

The European Union has just selected the “Cross Exchange on Preservation Techniques of Graphical Heritage; China – India – Europe” (CHINDEU) project, proposed in the framework of the Culture (2007-2013) programme. This project, which associates French, Italian, British, Hungarian, Indian and Chinese teams, is led by the Centre for Book Conservation (CCL) of Arles, France.

This project has as an objective, notably, to promote the exchange of skills and know-how between different agents from Europe and Asia involved in the preservation of graphical heritage, and to initiate an intercultural dialogue on the conservation techniques of this heritage.

The IFP, in close collaboration with the Pondicherry Centre of the French School of Asian Studies (EFEO), will be in charge of increasing awareness with regards to its partners, to the conservation techniques, cataloguing and diffusion of manuscripts on palm leaves.
