Curating Archives

Marking the International Archive Day 2020, we had initiated this series on 7th June 2020 and scheduled a few exposures on alternative days, until the closing session on 14th June. Towards the end, we all reconvened as a collective for an open dialogue across different speakers and chart out ways to take this initiative forward in as many participatory ways as possible. The conversations were curated according to following themes:

1. South Asia / India in Archives

2. A Day in the Life of an Archivist(s)

3. Beyond the Institutional Narrative

4. Empowering the Local
