This year, we came together as a global community to tackle the pressing challenges of our profession in the digital era. From thought-provoking virtual activities to impactful initiatives, you have helped advance our sector in profound ways. Our training efforts have empowered professionals to navigate the complexities of digital transformation, while the extended dialogue around #CyberArchives demonstrated our ability to engage in critical conversations about the future of archives and records management.
Looking ahead to 2025, we are excited about the opportunities to strengthen our professional network and further advance our mission:
- ICA Congress Barcelona 2025: Join us at the end of October for a landmark event that will bring together professionals from around the world to share insights, experiences, and visions for the future.
- International Archives Week: Taking place in the second week of June, this global celebration will focus on the importance of archives in shaping societies and empowering communities.
- Professional Activities: The ICA Programme Commission (PCOM) and our groups are preparing a rich program of events, training sessions, and initiatives designed to address current challenges and foster professional growth.
As we look forward to an exciting year ahead, we encourage you to continue your journey with ICA. For our members, now is the perfect time to renew your membership and remain part of this vibrant, engaged community. For those yet to join, we invite you to become a member of ICA to access invaluable resources, networking opportunities, and a platform to contribute to the future of our profession.
