About CAMVA
The Central American and Mexican Video Archive (CAMVA) Project is a four-year Technological Innovation and Cooperation for Foreign Information Access (TICFIA) grant that will allow Indiana University to create a digital archive, making accessible hundreds of hours of raw footage, videos, and films that are currently preserved in a precarious state. The archive will annotate, index and deliver the footage in such a way that it might be used in college and high school classrooms throughout the US, Mexico, and Central America. More on CAMVA»
