Welcome to the Endangered Archives Programme (EAP) portal
The Endangered Archives Programme (EAP) facilitates the digitisation of
archives around the world that are in danger of destruction, neglect or
physical deterioration. Thanks to generous funding from
Arcadia, a
charitable foundation that works to preserve cultural heritage and
promote open access to knowledge, we have provided grants to over 500
projects in over ninety countries worldwide, in more than a hundred
languages and scripts.
