The IUCHPP is assisting the IUPAP Executive Council with the project entitled “One Hundred Years of IUPAP: A History” under the direction of Roberto Lalli and Jaume Navarro. The project involves the digitization of institutional archival documents of the Union. This implies an important effort given that the documents are currently spread in various archives. The digitized documents will be made available for historical research and will constitute the primary source of information for a scholarly process, which will be concluded by a two-day academic workshop on the history of IUPAP in the last hundred years and the publication of a book.
