Documentation of intangible cultural heritage
We collaborate with communities to digitally-document intangible cultural heritage like performing arts, musical traditions, palm leaf manuscripts and monuments—this is helping bring free and accessible resources online for the first time.
Open Educational Resources and toolkit are under development to enable & assist active participation and contribution in the project.
Building open learning resources
This work is leading creation of open archives, research, toolkits, educational and other resources and eventually digital preservation of the cultural heritage in addition to producing a wide range of multimedia research content for ethnographers and scholars, rich annotations to supplement native and non-native comprehension, digital literacy and greater knowledge about the work of practicing artists.
