Date du début: 1 déc. 2014, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2018 PROJET  TERMINÉ 

All activities and undertakings within this project are tailored to specifically meet the Programmes’ targets of audience development and professionalization of players in the cultural sector. The core purpose of given project is to facilitate the mutual relationship between archives and archivists and the general public across the population stratum. This connecting and equating of archival institutions with their communities will ultimately comply with the Programmes’ objectives. Partial aim behind the project is to offer a barrier-free and easily accessible doorway to the opportunities of the Digital Age in the archival sector and empower the general public to actively make use of these possibilities and thereby take part in creating and exploring shared European history. Furthermore, it is envisioned to encourage sustainable growth of the digital archival landscape, advance the qualification of young professionals by providing material for teaching purposes, sponsored internships for students, various creative competitions for pupils, students and latterly the general public audience and therewith eventually advocate social solidarity. To this end the online archival databases will be enhanced through additional technical open source tools and Web 2.0 features in order to meet demands of audiences with special needs as well as actively promote and facilitate community involvement. Additionally, the implementation of innovative approaches towards citizen participation (festival, “Bring your history”-days, Topotheque, MOMathons, MOMschools) will reciprocally engage the public community with the archival world and in the long run create an intertwined, heterogeneous living community.
