In the framework of the communication meeting of #SinergiaALA, belonging to the Latin American Association of Archives(ALA), the seminar “The role of communication in archives” will be held on 9 November at the National Archive of Chile.
#SynergiaALA is a working group specialised in coordinating strategies for archival communication in the Ibero-American cultural world in the new digital environment. It was created at the 2014 meeting at the General Archive of the Nation of Colombia in November 2014. Its main objectives are to give visibility to the archives and bring them closer to citizens, while at the same time promoting at an international level the knowledge, preservation and transmission of the rich documentary heritage preserved in the archives of the Ibero-American cultural community.
This seminar, which analyses the impact of social networks on the communicative function of archives, will bring together communication managers from different member countries of the Ibero-American archival community.
