About the awards 2020

FIAT/IFTA Archive Achievement Awards 2020

The FIAT/IFTA Archive Achievement Awards are designed to honor outstanding archival initiatives and projects that have improved significantly the ways in which the archives are preserved, managed and used. Any initiative that brings the professional preservation and management of audiovisual archives to a higher level, any project that valorizes the use of archive in an outstanding way, is eligible to enter. Members of FIAT/IFTA can nominate their own organisation, or they can nominate a person or organisation with whom they have collaborated to bring the project to a successful end.

The FIAT/IFTA Archive Achievement Awards winners are traditionally announced during the Awards Show, a part of the Gala Dinner at the FIAT/IFTA World Conference. Since the 2020 Joint IASA – FIAT/IFTA Conference will take place online, also the Awards Show will be a virtual one. Exceptionally also the submissions of institutional, non-commercial members of IASA (International Association of Sound and Audiovisual Archives) will be accepted. The deadline to submit your proposal is 31 July 2020 16 August 2020.
