National Conference on Archives « National Archives...
Memory and Future »

 

Going beyond their traditional role of administrative documentation and preservation of collective memory, archives today constitute a strategic lever for governance, economic and social development, the protection of rights, and the enhancement of heritage.

Faced with global transformations and the digital revolution accelerated by the development of artificial intelligence, archives are no longer simple testimonies of the past. They become a capital of knowledge and civilization, while constituting a driver for effective public policies, guarantors of Morocco’s digital sovereignty and the promotion of its cultural diplomacy and its brand image internationally.
