Osianama Research Centre opened



Osianama Research Centre, Archive, Library and Sanctuary, represents twenty-five years of dedication by Neville Tuli and his teams towards building and re-building an independent world-class knowledge-base and related platforms so as to study and appreciate India's contemporary culture over the past two hundred years, and as it lives today and will be tomorrow. Within this vast abridged embrace, the dialogues with other cultures and nations also needed to be rediscovered with greater depth and vision.

Alongside building the physical archive & library, covering over 250,000 original cultural artifacts, books and artworks, covering cinema, the arts and various related cultural disciplines & subjects (Please see link for details Osianama Knowledge-base) it was imperative to build a world-class digital data-world (www.osianama.com) & search engine capable of sharing and transforming such a diverse array of information systems into meaningful knowledge-bases which would serve student and scholar alike.

Version 2.0 of www.osianama.com so that the knowledge-bases are freely shared with the global public will be formally launched on 6th March 2019. For the 1st Academic Year 2019-20, here are the Research Themes of Focus, which will be developed on a daily basis through the Osianama Experience Concept on the website and at the Research Centre.

Commenting in his Open Letter on this landmark achievement, Neville Tuli - Founder & President, iACEi – Council for the Indian Arts, Culture, Education & its Infrastructure -  stated: “…From late childhood my overwhelming need has been to build the finest dharamshala for one and all. One which embraced the arts, brimming with a creative knowledge and energy, full of animals and humans in constant play and learning amid nature's joyous silence, with the finest libraries and minds opening themselves to all and sundry, from children to grandparents, lay public to scholars, sharing and imparting wisdom on each and every question and answer, filling the hearts with a confidence and fearlessness that transforms passion into its compassionate service... Thus, after 25 years, my team members, past and present, all clients, vendors and people who showed us love and trust, shareholders, trustees and I, present the offline & online worlds of Osianama & www.osianama.com, as a small gift to all the students of India and all those wishing to study and fall in love again with her creative genius...”
