This document is part of the PROMISE project (2017-2019) financed by the Belgian Science Policy Office (Belspo) as part of the BRAIN.be programme and is coordinated by KBR. The State Archives, the universities of Ghent (Research Group for Media, Innovation and Communication Technologies; Ghent Centre for Digital Humanities) and Namur (Research Centre in Information, Law and Society) and the university college Bruxelles-Brabant (Unité de Recherche et de Formation en Sciences de l’Information et de la Documentation) are partners in the project.
In the scope of this project, a state-of-the-art report was written based on interviews via mail and Skype with several organizations from different countries. The information in this spreadsheet is a summary of the data collected during this task. A list of all the organisations involved can be found in tab "Annex - List of countries and organizations".
In 2020, a new project called BESOCIAL (towards a sustainable social media archiving strategy for Belgium) started in which an updated state-of-the-art report will be written with a focus on archiving social media.
Again, the different organizations are surveyed and the data in this spreadsheet is being updated and enhanced.
