Abstract
La technologie au service du patrimoine culturel immatériel de l’Afrique dans un contexte de conflit armé : cas de la région de l’extrême nord du Cameroun

The main goal of ALORA is to be able to save these treasuries from irreversible impairing or loss, and to serve as repositories for ongoing and future research data.
