World Day of Audio Visual Heritage 2016

World Day of Audiovisual Heritage 2016: IT’S YOUR STORY – DON’T LOSE IT

During the 20th CCAAA meeting in Singapore this year, it was decided that the joint activities will be centered around this theme.

Rationale: every culture, every country has its own story to tell. These stories remind us of our shared humanity and build connections between people. Every story we keep in our archives means that we keep memories alive. Stories should be kept safe, stories create an invaluable archive for future generations – it’s your (and their!) story – don’t lose it!

This rationale demonstrates the value and importance of archives. With respect to the annual celebration of World Day of Audiovisual Heritage, we want to collect the stories that prove the value for use in advocating for archives. Ultimately these stories will be made available via the CCAAA and the members’ websites.

CCAAA (via FIAT/IFTA) seeks stories that show the importance and impact of archives. Under the umbrella of the website and through social media (Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn) we will share the stories with our members, stakeholders and public.

Action: each CCAAA-member collects at least 2 archive stories from its own community. Basic question: which story told by an archive describes best why we must not lose it? For example: the priceless recordings of the historic trials of Nelson Mandela and the ANC leaders from 1963/1964 that were kept in the vaults of the South African National Archives but could not be used. It could also be about oral history or even new media, not necessarily the endangered collections.

How: send your – or your community’s – stories to FIAT/IFTA’s Office.

Address: office@fiatifta.org

A maximum of 200 words per case and a picture. FIAT/IFTA in collaboration with Christophe Dupin will publish these stories on the special 2016 World Day-page on the new CCAAA website.

See example: https://blogs.archives.qld.gov.au/

Timing: send your stories and pictures to the FIAT/IFTA Office before 21st of October. Stories will be published at the 27th of October – accompanied by a social media campaign.
