2024.05 – Djenné

Conclusion of the “Archives of Knowledge” project in Djenné, Mali.

We have completed the preventive conservation activities for the manuscripts held in the city’s library and in the Prefecture’s archives.

This marks another contribution to the preservation of written heritage in crisis-affected areas.

A heartfelt thank you to our entire team — Malian and Italian — and to the ALIPH Foundation for its support.
