Preserving Our Cultural Memory: why is it celebrated on October 27?
October 27th is Audiovisual Heritage Day. This date was established by UNESCO in 2005 to promote the preservation of and access to the world's audiovisual heritage, which includes films, sound recordings, radio and television programmes
Audiovisual heritage plays a crucial role in documenting history, culture and society. It helps tell the story of a people, reflecting their traditions, values and evolution over time. In addition, audiovisual heritage is a powerful tool for education and research, allowing people to learn about the past and connect with their roots.
