Since its inception, QAHN has undertaken a variety of community-based province-wide heritage projects.
In 2007, the Cemetery Heritage Inventory and Restoration Initiative (CHIRI) was launched resulting in the identification of more than 300 cemeteries at risk in the Estrie, Montérégie, Laurentides, Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean, and Outaouais regions of Quebec. Visit the recently uploaded searchable online database Cemetery Heritage that includes detailed information in 151 records of cemeteries in the Eastern Townships and Laurentians regions.

The Heritage Trails project created and published a series of attractive pamphlets identifying and describing heritage sites in 20 regions of Quebec. Each pamphlet offers a detailed itinerary that can be used to take you on a one-day drive through the area.

The Quebec Heritage Web portal project created five Heritage WebMagazines, each containing a wealth of local information for travelers and historical researchers.

Our most recent project, Voices From Quebec, is an oral history partnership with the Blue Metropolis Foundation and its educational programmes and English-language schools around the province. In 2009 students worked with professional audio technicians, educators and local historians to produce podcasts that you can download from this website. 

We are currently seeking financial support through Canada's Cultural Development Fund to enable Core member societies to celebrate and explore community heritage through innovative and exciting multimedia technologies. Enjoy your visit!
