community memory preservation
From: Community Archives (@CArchives)
Our call for papers for our annual conference is now live - the theme is Preserving community memories through audio & film https://t.co/e5lTQkISCp
Suggested angles
The conference addresses a concrete gap: most community memory projects lack structured frameworks for sustainable audio and film archiving, and this CFP can help establish best practices across different communities and regions.
This theme directly tackles the technical and ethical challenges of digitizing oral histories and community footage—from metadata standards to consent protocols—that practitioners face but rarely discuss in formal settings.
The conference creates space to showcase how audio and film preservation strengthens community identity and resilience, moving beyond academic documentation to demonstrate tangible outcomes for the groups being recorded.
Position your submission as addressing a specific barrier to community memory preservation (technical, ethical, or access-related) that other practitioners would need to solve.
