This project will establish an on-site Archives space within the Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami office. At present, ITK's Archives are stored in the office basement or in an off-site third party storage facility. The ITK Archives currently consists of an estimated 1200 boxes of paper records, photos, tapes, film and other media, as well as nearly 40 maps and other large format records. The contents of many of the boxes in off-site storage are currently unidentified. An important component of this project will be creating a high-level inventory for the entire Archive.

This project aims to digitize oral history recordings presenting the heritage of the English-speaking communities of the Eastern Townships from at-risk media formats, to transcribe them, and to make them available to the public through the organization's online database.

The objective of the project is to showcase and preserve 30,000 photographic negatives from newspaper Le Nouvelliste’s fonds. The goal is also to make these archives known and accessible to all Canadians. The project aims to digitize 30,000 documents in TIFF format, the content of which will be described in accordance with the Rules for Archival Description (RAD).

This project aims to facilitate improved access to a significant collection in the Historeum’s archival holdings. The collection consists of 44 meters of school registers from 139 schools in Colchester County and spans 118 years from 1868-1986. Approximately two thirds of the records have yet to be rehoused and digitized to ensure the long-term preservation of vital information.

In 2025, the McCord Stewart Museum will present a story of street photography in Montréal, from the 19th century to the present. Drawn from the Museum’s collection, it will present a series of works by more than 20 photographers who have demonstrated a deep commitment to depicting the various dimensions of the street: as a space to protest, a commercial ground, an expression of the urban fabric, a site of performance, a place for expressing identity, and more.

The Kaatza Historical Society wishes to digitize its forest industry and community archival collections, to both increase access to researchers and the public and to preserve its collections. The Society wishes to use the Documentary Heritage Community Grant to pay the wages of an archivist and a digitization intern. The funding would be used to digitize in-house and increase access to several collections, including 3 photo collections and 2 newspaper collections.

Over the next four years, the project will develop and strengthen the BC Network of Child and Youth Advocacy Centres. The main activities include: support for centres, continued work on best practices and an Indigenous Services Framework, and continued evaluation and improvement of practice.

ANSJI will provide support to other jurisdictions in their implementation of IRCA; provide in-person and virtual assessor training sessions; provide support to new IRCA assessors via the mentorship model; and the development of a national network of IRCA assessors.
