International Dunhuang Project

Established in 1994, the International Dunhuang Project (IDP) is a highly-effective collaboration focused on digitization of Dunhuang and Western Regions literature and artifacts. Its secretariat is located at the British Library. The IDP website (http:// idp.nlc.cn/) was opened in 1998.

This pioneering international collaboration aims to make information and images of manuscripts, paintings, textiles, and artworks unearthed from Dunhuang and other archaeological sites along the eastern Silk Road freely accessible on the internet. It is dedicated to promoting international cooperation in the preservation, restoration, and research of documents, providing high-quality images of Dunhuang literature to users worldwide, and encouraging the utilization of these resources through educational and research initiatives. The IDP has established centers through partnerships in various cities including Beijing, St. Petersburg, Kyoto, Berlin, Dunhuang, and Paris. Major Dunhuang literature collections from China, the UK, France, and Russia have IDP centers, with over 20 collaborating institutions globally. The National Library of China and the Dunhuang Academy are the primary Chinese collaborators in the IDP as well as the operators of the Chinese version of the IDP website. As of September 2024, the IDP website had become the world's largest, most comprehensive database of Dunhuang cave literature and artifact images, featuring six language versions.

國際敦煌項目

國際敦煌項目（IDP）是一項卓有成效的敦煌西域文獻(xiàn)文物數(shù)字化合作項目。1994年成立，其秘書處設(shè)在英國國家圖書館。1998年，IDP網(wǎng)站（http://idp.nlc.cn/）開通。

這是一個開創(chuàng)性的國際協(xié)作項目，目標(biāo)是使敦煌及絲綢之路東段其他考古遺址出土的寫本、繪畫、紡織品以及藝術(shù)品的信息與圖像能在互聯(lián)網(wǎng)上自由地獲取，它致力于推動文獻(xiàn)保護(hù)修復(fù)與研究的國際合作，向全世界各層次的使用者提供優(yōu)質(zhì)的敦煌西域文獻(xiàn)圖像，并通過教育與研究項目鼓勵用戶利用這些資源。IDP通過合作的方式，先后在北京、圣彼得堡、京都、柏林、敦煌、巴黎設(shè)立中心，包括中、英、法、俄敦煌文獻(xiàn)四大收藏機(jī)構(gòu)都設(shè)有IDP中心，全世界合作機(jī)構(gòu)多達(dá)20多家。中國國家圖書館和敦煌研究院是IDP在中國合作的主要機(jī)構(gòu)，也是IDP中文版的運營者。截至2024年9月，IDP網(wǎng)站擁有6種文字版本，已成為全世界提供敦煌藏經(jīng)洞文獻(xiàn)文物圖片最多、覆蓋面最廣的數(shù)據(jù)庫。
