The ICA Fund for the International Development of Archives’ (FIDA) role is to support the development of archives and archivists in countries, regions and communities where archives and records provision could be strengthened due to lack of resources or training opportunities, or for other reasons. 

We can’t wait to look through all of the applications for FIDA funding! We love seeing how our international community is supporting the development of archives and archivists in under-resourced communities! There are only two weeks left to apply for funding – the deadline is 15 September 2023.  

Do you have questions about the FIDA application? Tomorrow is our last live Q&A webinar before the deadline! This is your opportunity to come and have your specific questions answered before you submit your application. Join us at 14.00 CET (Paris time)! 

The FIDA Call for Projects 2024 is currently open and will remain open until 15 September 2023.   The goal of the Fund for the International Development of Archives (FIDA) is to provide resources or training opportunities to help strengthen the development of archives and archivists in under-resourced communities. FIDA provides grants to projects that provide assistance through career development, mentoring and other methods, equipping and strengthening archives and archivists all over the world.
