Many INCCA members work on research projects, within their institutions and together with other professionals in the field. Over the years the INCCA office has received a number of requests for letters of recommendation to use to attract project subsidies or even to get permission to carry out research projects within their own organisation. Unfortunately, often the results of such projects are not added to the INCCA Database for Artist's Archives mainly for lack of time.This service for INCCA members has been created not only to encourage members to share their project results via INCCA but also to help members in getting their research projects started.
