Call for Proposals Launched for Humanitarian Archive Emergency Project

The Digital Preservation Coalition has issued a call for proposals for its Humanitarian Archive Emergency Project, an initiative designed to safeguard the long-term preservation and accessibility of critical records generated during crises such as conflicts and natural disasters.

The project seeks innovative approaches for digitizing archival materials in vulnerable settings, creating metadata, transferring them to secure locations, and enabling rapid access for those who need them. Proposals will be evaluated based on technical feasibility, sustainability, and their potential contribution to humanitarian efforts.

This call for proposals, made on January 25, 2026, anticipates a wide range of ideas from experts and organizations. The initiative aims to protect invaluable information resources for future humanitarian response and crisis management.
