    La Biblioteca, Museos y Editorial de la Universidad de Delaware ha recibido una beca de $ 70,000 de la Fundación Andrew W. Mellon para apoyar un proyecto internacional y colaborativo de humanidades digitales titulado “Digitalizando los desaparecidos: colaboraciones para publicar exhibiciones digitales sobre los desaparecidos de Guatemala”.

    Los fondos apoyarán la publicación digital de los expedientes de los archivos del Grupo de Apoyo Mutuo (GAM), una organización de derechos humanos en Guatemala fundada en 1984 por mujeres que buscaban a sus seres queridos asesinados durante la Guerra Civil de Guatemala (1960-1996). Los archivos del GAM, que contienen registros de abusos de derechos humanos y archivos legales, han sido reconocidos como una colección documental de importancia internacional por el Programa Memoria del Mundo de la Organización de las Naciones Unidas para la Educación, la Ciencia y la Cultura (UNESCO).

    Alex Galarza, bibliotecario de investigaciones digitales de la UD, y Daniel Alvarado, asesor de derechos humanos del GAM, liderarán el proyecto como co-investigadores principales.

    “[ La colaboración internacional ] es muy importante para el trabajo del GAM al amplificar las voces de miles de familias que aún buscan a sus seres queridos desaparecidos”. Dijo Alvarado . “Esta nueva fase de trabajo se trata de crear nuevas líneas de comunicación con las familias de las víctimas, trabajar con sus recuerdos y archivos personales, y centrar el trabajo de dignificación mientras buscamos su participación en la publicación de exhibiciones digitales”.

    Este proyecto brinda oportunidades para que los estudiantes y profesores de la U D hagan contribuciones importantes en la investigación de casos, ayudando a diseñar exhibiciones digitales y participando en esfuerzos de alcance comunitario.

    “ Con el apoyo de la Fundación Mellon, vamos a ser capaces de desarrollar una forma sostenible de participación de familiares en la creación de exhibiciones digitales sobre sus seres queridos ”, dijo Galarza. ” Esperamos que ese método pueda ayudar a cambiar la memoria histórica del conflicto armado interno que duró 36 años en Guatemala “.

    El equipo del proyecto buscará trabajar con las familias sobrevivientes en Guatemala, así como con las comunidades de la diáspora en Delaware, como la comunidad guatemalteca en Sussex County. Los fondos también apoyan el posible viaje del equipo entre Delaware y Guatemala.

    “ El generoso apoyo de la Fundación Mellon es un maravilloso reconocimiento del trabajo importante llevado a cabo por nuestro equipo de investigación digital , y estamos muy agradecidos a la Fundación por su apoyo”, Trevor A. Dawes, Vice Provost para la biblioteca y museos y May Morris Bibliotecario Universitario de la UD , dijo . “El proyecto no solo desarrollará la capacidad entre la comunidad de investigación de Guatemala y las comunidades de la diáspora aquí en los Estados Unidos, sino que también sentará las bases para abordar problemas complejos de privacidad y consideraciones éticas de los familiares sobrevivientes mientras se cuentan historias y se presentan exhibiciones digitales significativas que resaltan este período de la historia de Guatemala “.

    Este proyecto se basa en el trabajo realizado por Galarza entre 2017 y 2019 como miembro del Consejo de Recursos de Bibliotecas y Información (CLIR) en Haverford College. Durante ese tiempo, 3.322 archivos de casos de la colección sobre las desapariciones forzadas fueron escaneados , y se desarrolló el marco para los archivos digitales del GAM. Haverford College continúa apoyando esas colecciones y el desarrollo de archivos como socio en el proyecto. Para obtener más información sobre el Proyecto de archivo digital de GAM, visite ds.haverford.edu/gam-archive.

    Si tiene preguntas, comuníquese con Shelly McCoy , bibliotecaria universitaria asociada para comunicación y planificación especial, smccoy@udel.edu.
