The Institute of the Peoples of the North of the A. I. Herzen Russian State Pedagogical University together with the M.K. Ammosov North-Eastern Federal University are working on the creation of a "Virtual museum of Traditional Culture of indigenous Peoples of the North, Siberia and the Far East of the Russian Federation."

The combined project, the idea of which arose in the process of discussing the need to digitalize the linguistic and cultural heritage of the indigenous peoples of the North, is designed to promote the preservation of their culture and the involvement of students, employees of cultural institutions and local residents in the work "on the ground".

In the process of creating a virtual museum, a portal with three-dimensional models will be created. To fill it, it is planned to conduct expeditions to local history museums, ethnocultural centers and reindeer herders' camps, the Institute of Peoples of the North reported.
