This year’s theme, ‘At-Risk Digital Materials’, is particularly relevant to us, too, because, for the ICA, this year has been rich in reflections on the matter of archives at risk. After publishing the Guiding Principles for Safe Havens for Archives at Risk  with the International taskforce led by Swisspeace, and having launched the Disaster Relief fund, we are now turning to training to make a change.
