Archivists without Borders Spain (AwB) takes action in countries with a documentary heritage risking loss or irreversible degradation due, mainly, to a lack of development or sufficient resources.
At the same time AwB collaborates with countries that have suffered political transitions or have been immersed in social conflicts in which records are a major element for the exercise of people’s rights.
Likewise, Archivists without Borders Spain collaborates with those settlements that have suffered some natural disaster, be it a flood, an earthquake or other catastrophic event, where, once the bare necessities are covered, it becomes necessary to act to ensure the preservation of documentary heritage as one of the most important sources of historical memory.
