PAC Chile created this video as part of the programme Memorias del Siglo XX, a project of the National Archives of Chile. With the motto, “Remember stories, build our memory”, this project promotes the participation of individuals and communities in the collective processes of preserving local memory and heritage.
Since 2007, the project has compiled more than 10,000 photographs, which have been digitised and contextualized participatively by community members, and made available on the project’s website.
