SocietyRohingya in Bangladesh preserve Myanmar memories through digital archive

Rohingya refugees in Cox’s Bazar are digitising family photos, identity papers and land deeds to preserve evidence of their heritage. Archivists hope the encrypted, decentralised collection will protect cultural memory for younger generations and may support ICC and ICJ cases against Myanmar. Refugees also regard the documents as important for any future repatriation.
