The closing conference of the Balkans’ Memory project was held in Sarajevo on 19 November 2014. It celebrated three years of training and know-how and good practices’ exchange aimed at supporting policies for the preservation, the digitisation and the promotion of the audiovisual heritage in the Balkans’ region.
This event brought together professionals from television, cinema and national archives of Albania, FYROM Macedonia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Croatia, Kosovo, Montenegro, Serbia and other neighbouring countries. On that occasion, an assessment on the activities carried out within the project was presented on three main areas: training and networking, research and sharing of resources and means, fundraising and funding opportunities.
The results of this three-year period were collected in a guide of good practices on the preservation and the promotion of audiovisual archives, including concrete examples and case studies analysed during the project.
