Public events and publication

The Inp is a place for reflection, discussion and exchange on heritage issues and the links these have with many contemporary topics: sustainable development, identity and interdependence, cultural democratization, digital practices.

Composed of symposia, study days, conferences and research seminars, the programme is aimed at a broad range of audiences. Throughout the year, it brings together various speakers on topics related to current events in the field.

The magazine Patrimoines, published annually, offers a transversal approach to issues related to heritage conservation and restoration and highlights research carried out by students during their training period.

The “Carnets de Recherche” complement it with contributions from students, Inp staff and participants.
