This professional update from Institute for Professional Practice in Heritage & the Arts (IPPHA), held in collaboration with the UNESCO Australian Memory of the World Committee, celebrates the 20th anniversary of the UNESCO Memory of the World Program for the preservation of documentary heritage. It explains its origins and history, its vision and goals, the nomination process for its registers, and the synergies that exist between it and the UNESCO heritage conventions - World Heritage and Intangible Cultural Heritage. Experts from all levels of the Memory of the World Program, and experts in UNESCO heritage conventions, will share their experiences and discuss enhanced cooperation among these international heritage preservation initiatives at a time of reduced resources for heritage protection.
