Dr. Yousef Al Krunz, Chairman of the Board of the Palestinian Network for Media Development Organization (PNMD), and Eng. Hassan Dukhan, Director General of the Palestinian Digital Immortality Initiative, have signed a strategic cooperation and partnership agreement aimed at unifying efforts, strengthening joint institutional work, and expanding cooperation in the fields of media, digital technology, and documentation.
The agreement aims to develop and implement joint projects, programmes, and initiatives focusing on digital media, digital documentation and archiving, and the preservation of Palestinian memory and narratives. This will be achieved through the use of modern tools and technologies to document events and Palestinian human and community experiences, while enhancing access to content and knowledge and ensuring their availability for future generations.
The agreement also provides for cooperation in designing and delivering training programmes, workshops, awareness-raising events, and specialised meetings. These activities will seek to strengthen the capacities of journalists, media professionals, and young people in digital content production, media documentation, digital archiving, information and source verification, and the use of modern technologies to preserve Palestinian content and collective memory. The partnership will also facilitate the exchange of expertise, knowledge, and available resources between the two parties.
This partnership reflects both organisations’ commitment to strengthening the integration of media work and digital documentation, and to developing sustainable initiatives that contribute to preserving Palestinian memory, safeguarding the national narrative, highlighting human and community experiences, and harnessing technology in the service of Palestinian media and society.
Both parties emphasised the importance of the agreement in opening new avenues for joint cooperation and developing innovative projects that bring together media expertise and digital capabilities. These efforts are expected to support innovation, enhance the skills of target groups, and reinforce the importance of digital documentation as a tool for preserving knowledge and memory and passing them on to future generations.
