Title Documenting Australian Society: An initiative of the UNESCO Australian Memory of the World Committee
Creator Contributors
Abstract/Description The topic of documenting Australian Society has been discussed regularly by Australian documentary heritage professionals since the 1990s. The journal Archives and Manuscripts has published theme issues on the topic in 2001 and in 2023. In 2018 the UNESCO Australian Memory of the World Program organised a national summit on the topic in Canberra. That summit meeting endorsed ‘The Canberra Declaration’ as an action agenda for the documentary heritage sectors and agreed that the UNESCO Australian Memory of the World Program should take carriage of the initiative.
