It will outline the emerging challenge and the need for action at all levels, putting the digital memory of the world off limits to those who would disrupt, deface or destroy. This action will need clear voices and thoughtful messages; advocates who can influence policy at all levels, releasing investment and safeguarding a shared digital legacy for the next generation. While many of the actions will fall to governments and governing bodies, there are actions we can all take towards advocating for digital preservation within our many organizations and across our diverse professional contexts. So, having laid out challenges before us, the webinar will then introduce key concepts and resources to support advocacy for digital preservation. Who should come: Anyone involved in digital preservation who needs to make a case for a digital preservation program at their organization Registration: Registration is free and open to all. Registration closes next week, on Tuesday 11th July.
