Following the “International Archives Week“ campaign „Archives empowering knowledge societies“ and CREARCH -Creative archives as innovative cultural hubs project’s educational and audience development activities, ICARUS Hrvatska invites you to a new webinar introducing the Spacetime Layers Platform.
MAPPING HERITAGE TOGETHER
Spacetime Layers is a joint platform of cultural organizations, nature management and educational institutions, that allows information to be placed on an interactive map. Within the frame of educational activities, pupils and students look for (stories behind) cultural heritage and subsequently disseminate the found knowledge. Media literacy, digital literacy, cultural education and crosscurricular didactics all come together in this innovative app that originated in a Dutch primary school class. During the webinar, Patrick Trentelman will show you how you can easily put information into the interactive map, stake out guided tours and adventurous scavenger hunts. It is a fantastic tool for cultural organisations, schools, GLAM institutions, tourist agencies, nature/heritage parks and sights etc. + All participants of the webinar will receive a free Spacetime account to host their own content in the app!

Common Archival Heritage
Preservation, Accessibility, Digitisation
The State Archives of the Republic of North Macedonia, together with ICARUS, has the honour to organize the 31st ICARUS Convention in Skopje and Ohrid.
The first two days of the Convention (8 and 9 November) will take place in Skopje, and the last day of the Convention (10 November) is planned to be held in Ohrid, a town which is a part of UNESCO’s World Heritage.
As most of historical processes are not geographically or otherwise isolated, archives worldwide, whether national, regional, or even personal, have also a mission to keep and present documents concerning common history. Hence the intention of the 31st ICARUS Convention is to shed light to the importance of common archival heritage that should be
a base for a fruitful scientific and cultural cooperation as well as for the promotion of good neighbourly relations.
We expect participants to highlight the archival heritage of international/regional interest, its preservation, accessibility,
digitization, especially its presence at online archival platforms and development of digital research tools.
Moreover, the contributions will be related to the provenance and preservation of the archival heritage in the context of political, legal and ethical issues.
