The project highlights the relationship between archeology and European citizens by exploring the multiple dimensions of these links. As an example, the realization of a survey on the European perception of archaeology and archaeological heritage or the realization of a program of artistic residencies and two international exhibitions on the link between heritage and artistic creation.

Since 2013, Inrap has been leading the NEARCH project, a network of 14 institutions from 10 European countries. This project is supported by the European Commission for 5 years (2013-2018) under the "Culture Program".


It's presented in the promotional brochure of the European Year of Cultural Heritage published by the European Commission.
