Abstract EN

The audio-visual archive of the Algerian Public Establishment of Television has important resources of the heritage and collective memory of the Algerian society.

Its existence as an audio-visual production institution in the media arena during the colonial period then during the independence years afterwards has positioned it as an irreplaceable witness and a documentary source of all the various changes the country has experienced (political, social, economic, historical, and cultural).

However, these audio-visual archival resources face several issues related to their preservation and existence threatening losing a large amount of documents related to the nation’s history and heritage.

The shift towards digitization is a strategic project to preserve this audio-visual memory of the Algerian Public Establishment of Television.

Hence, this study has emerged, and it presents the experience of Algeria in producing the audio-visual Mediterranean Memories Project “Med-Mem” which is part of the EUROMED Heritage Programme 4.

This study also capitalizes on the experience of the Algerian Public Establishment of Television and developing the technological and technical skills of the archivists and professionals to fulfil this national project.
