Agreement Value:

$8,976.00

Agreement Date:

May 21, 2020 - Mar 31, 2021

Description:

This project will examine specific records within the collection of the South Peace Regional Archives (SPRA) that the Indigenous History Committee has identified as having Indigenous content. The SPRA will add culturally appropriate descriptions and contextual information to these records. This project will increase access to approximately 300 Indigenous-related archival photographs and paper artifacts, through digitization and promotion on social media. Through consultation with the Committee, the project will enable Indigenous peoples to engage in the identification of photographs and paper artifacts from the SPRA. The project will enrich SPRA records and help members of Indigenous communities to connect with their past.
