Our first meeting will take place on Friday, August 12. During the following week, from August 15 to August 19, we will be visiting the Berliet (today Renault Trucks) sites in Monplaisir and Vénissieux, and having our first session on the fate of this heritage throughout the 20th century.

Our second full week will begin with a workshop on the Berliet Archives from Morocco and Algeria (http://www.fondationberliet.org/ressources-documentaires ).
