It supports archivists and institutions worldwide in preserving, managing, and providing access to these valuable materials. The ICA helps develop standards, share best practices, and foster international cooperation to ensure that historical and governmental records are maintained for future generations’ understanding, accountability, and cultural identity. Essentially, it works to protect the world's documentary heritage and ensure that vital information remains accessible over time.
