Dunhuang Academy

The Dunhuang Academy traces its origins to the National Dunhuang Art Research Institute, established in 1944. In 1950, it was renamed Dunhuang Cultural Relics Research Institute, and in 1984, it was expanded and upgraded to the Dunhuang Academy. The Academy oversees management of six cave complexes: the world cultural heritage sites of the Mogao Caves in Dunhuang, the Maiji Mountain Grottoes in Tianshui, the Bingling Caves in Yongjing, and other key protected cultural relics sites in China including the Yulin Caves in Guazhou, the Western Thousand-Buddha Caves in Dunhuang, and the North Cave-Temple in Qingyang.

The headquarters of the Academy is located in the city of Dunhuang, Gansu Province, China. The Dunhuang Academy also operates a branch office in Lanzhou. Guided by the policy of "protection, research, and promotion", the Academy has become a site museum with considerable influence worldwide, a research entity for Dunhuang studies, and a scientific research base for the protection of ancient Chinese murals and earthen sites. At the 34th session of the World Heritage Committee held in Brazil in 2010, the Mogao Caves was praised as "a model" for effective protection and sustainable tourism management. Today, the Academy is striving to become a model for the protection of world cultural heritage and a pedestal for the research of Dunhuang studies.
