IIUI IVIdVIWl\MlNLlJIVI United Nations Children's Fund Three United Nations Plaza Telephone Facsimile New York, New York Date: 9* ctober 2004 To: From: UNICEF Division Directors and Heads of ffices at NYH Toshiyuki/Niwa Deputy Executive Director ubject: Common ervices Digital Archives Programme - UNICEF DAP Coordinators and Divisional Focal Points In 2003, the Task Force on Common ervices approved and funded a project to undertake strategic planning for the development of a Digital Archives Programme [DAP] within the Common ervices framework. The project is under the management of the Common ervices Working Group on Archives and Records Management (WGARM) with representation from Participating rganizations [UNPs] UNDP, UNICEF, UNFPA, UNP, and the UN ecretariat. The project also forms part of UNICEF's trategic Information trategy and is being coordinated with other UNICEF information management initiatives. The goal of DAP is to ensure that digital information of long-term value is appropriately captured, maintained, preserved and made available as a corporate resource. When implemented, the DAP will enable business units to identify archival records in digital formats at the beginning of their life cycle and apply appropriate retention criteria. This planning phase of DP A comprises three elements: An assessment and analysis of technical and administrative infrastructure, which includes current policies, practices and technologies, relating to the creation, identification and preservation of digital records. The design of a DAP framework which includes a comprehensive set of digital standards, specifications, requirements, preservation strategies and appropriate DAP model(s). An Implementation Plan that describes a high level approach linking the current technical and administrative infrastructure to the proposed DAP design. The project is being undertaken by a consulting firm, under the management of the UNPs WGARM and DAP project manager. Co-ordinators for UNICEF's participation in the project have also been nominated. I request your assistance in identifying division and office focal points to act as liaison between your office and UNICEF's DAP project co-ordinators, to facilitate and validate the collection of information, and to attend meetings and presentations.
