The Memory of the World Programme may endorse and support projects and activities which are aimed at furthering the objectives of the Programme.

Projects and activities may be diverse. They can operate at the international, regional, national or local level. There may, for instance, be conservation or digitization projects, awareness raising or training activities, marketing or publicity exercises or technical manuals. These would normally occur under the auspices of a body in the Memory of the World Programme structure.

Funding may come from UNESCO or other sources. Proponents are encouraged to seek funds from a variety of sources, and where practicable the Secretariat or committees may facilitate such approaches.

To submit a project, kindly fill in the Project Description Form. This form is intended for documentary heritage which is either on the Memory of the World Register or for documentary heritage which, in the opinion of the International Advisory Committee, deserves further consideration but is encouraged or is lacking a management plan.
