Thomson Foundation for Film & Television Heritage

Created in 2006, The Thomson Foundation for Film & Television Heritage is a non-profit entity, acting in the field of preservation and promotion of film and audiovisual heritage, which reflects the history and the culture of a country.

The Thomson Foundation operates worldwide and as a priority, in countries where archives are at risk. Three main lines guide its programs: preserve a film heritage as a key part of a country’s memory, promote and highlight a film heritage in order to show it and to share it with large audience, train and sensitize everyone who can play a part in the safeguard of film heritage.

The Foundation currently conducts programs in more than 8 countries: mostly India, Cambodia, Thailand, USA and France and more recently Palestinian territories and Mozambique.

To ensure independence and transparency, the projects are supported actively by the Foundation’s Board of Directors comprising 11 members, 6 of whom are experts from outside Thomson.
