A technological and cultural Hub
The CHEDAR Research Center is conceived as a technological and cultural hub, committed to the study, documentation, and preservation of endangered cultural heritage—particularly in areas exposed to armed conflict and the effects of climate change across the Arab and Mediterranean Regions.
At the intersection of science, creativity, and care, CHEDAR brings together expertise in digital innovation, heritage conservation, and artistic experimentation to address some of the most urgent challenges facing cultural ecosystems today.
The Center also envisions and actively contributes to shaping the museums of the future: inclusive, immersive, and digitally enhanced spaces that foster open access, multisensory engagement, and creative reinterpretation of cultural content.
With a mission aligned with the latest European frameworks on cultural heritage, CHEDAR positions itself as a platform for transdisciplinary research, technological development, and collaborative design of new narratives and cultural experiences.

Taking part in its activities means becoming part of a dynamic collaborative ecosystem, where education is interwoven with research, innovation, and hands-on experience.
Through restoration sites, laboratories, and shared projects, CHEDAR fosters the creation of strong and sustainable alliances, capable of generating knowledge, professional opportunities, and new visions for the future of heritage.
