The International Dunhuang Programme (IDP), formerly the International Dunhuang Project, is an international collaboration dedicated to the digitisation, preservation and study of manuscripts, artefacts and visual materials from the central and eastern Silk Road, particularly those originating from the Western Chinese city of Dunhuang and the Mogao Caves.The programme provides free online access to digitised collections of manuscripts, printed texts, paintings, textiles and other artefacts held by partner institutions worldwide via its digital database on the IDP website. The IDP also supports scholarly research, conservation training and public engagement related to Silk Road heritage to promote understandings of the history and cultures of those regions.
