Adopted AtoM for refugee and migration records

Archivo Histórico CAREF

The Comisión Argentina para Refugiados y Migrantes operates a populated AtoM catalogue for its historical archive. CAREF began assisting people displaced after the 1973 coup in Chile and later worked with refugees, exiles, returnees and migrants across changing regional contexts. Its AtoM service describes written and photographic records, institutional communications and evidence of humanitarian work, especially from 1973 to 1989. The archive presents its role as preserving institutional memory, supporting historical research and safeguarding individual and collective rights. The public catalogue establishes operational adoption, but it does not identify a predecessor database, an installation date or an automated migration. Public descriptions also should not be read as proof that every sensitive personal record is openly downloadable.
