Our Story
Folklore connects people across time and place. At the Center for Folklore Archiving and Digital Preservation, we use modern technology to document, protect, and share cultural heritage. By building digital collections and making them accessible, we help ensure that traditions aren’t lost but continue to inspire and inform the future. Our work combines research with practical digital solutions to keep heritage alive in today’s world.
What We Do
Digital
Archiving
We build and manage digital collections that protect cultural heritage from loss or damage. By using reliable technologies, we ensure materials remain accessible and usable for future generations.
Research & Documentation
Our team carries out field studies and archival research to record traditions in their original context. This work supports scholars, communities, and anyone interested in exploring cultural heritage.
Public Access & Education
We create tools, platforms, and learning resources that open up our collections to educators, students, and the public. Our goal is to make cultural heritage easy to explore and understand.
Community Collaboration
We partner with local communities and tradition bearers to document and share their heritage. Together, we make sure cultural knowledge stays alive and continues to be part of everyday life.
