520 | |a Timbuktu’s intellectual heritage has attracted new-found interest afterthe preservation of the city’s manuscripts was declared as the first culturalproject of the New Partnership for Africa’s Development (NEPAD). The initiativecreated a space for researchers interested in studying the content of themanuscripts.
