The 2019 General Assembly of the ICA was held on October 22 at the end of the first day of the “Designing the Archive” conference in Adelaide, Australia.
ICA president David Fricker and vice-presidents Normand Charbonneau and Henri Zuber came back to the organisation’s concrete achievements of 2019: the launch of an online training platform, the inauguration of a disaster relief fund, and the establishment of an expert group on Indigenous matters, among other things.
They also highlighted the international initiatives in which the ICA participates and allows archivists’ voices to be heard, notably UNESCO’s Memory of the World Project and the World Intellectual Property Organization.
