Identity Conference overlooks archive's plight
The article highlights the importance of preserving the Egyptian archive and its role in strengthening national identity. It points out that the Egyptian Documents Authority retains only a small percentage of historical documents up to 1954, making it difficult for researchers to access reliable sources to document significant historical events, especially when compared to foreign countries that respect the confidentiality of their documents and make them more accessible. The article also sheds light on the destruction of archives in Egypt over the years and the absence of laws regulating the freedom of information exchange, which negatively impacts scientific research and national identity. In response, the article calls for the development of digitization and making the archive accessible to Egyptian researchers, emphasizing to officials the importance of the archive as a primary source for fostering history and national identity.
