This is an ongoing program executed on a yearly basis for selected domains. It consists in establishing a Pan-Armenian Heritage Management System, a formal digital inventory that conforms to international scientific and legal standards to allow a better governance of heritage and its preservation and protection. The approach is incremental and continuous. Once the management system and the IT framework are created, the program will promote and support the collaboration of all relevant stakeholders for data population purposes.
Priority will be given to the input of data related to the immovable heritage of Artsakh.
