Role and Impact of Community Outreach Programmes for Dimasa Digital Preservation

'Role and Impact of Community Outreach Programmes for Dimasa Digital Preservation' Presented by Monali Longmailai, Monimala Rajkumari Sinha and Christina Wasson at the Language Documentation and Archiving Conference, Berlin & Online, 4-6 Sept, 2024. We present an innovative approach to working with communities to collect Indigenous heritage material for a community-based digital archive. The community is Dimasa, primarily based in Assam, India (137,184 people as per 2011 Census of India). Longmailai led the development of “community outreach programmes” as a way for her team of Dimasa linguists to engage with Dimasa living in rural villages. This project responds to several points under the conference theme of Building Relationships, as well as providing a report from an Indigenous-led project (Planning and Design for the Decade theme). Large set of historical and cultural narratives from Dimasa has been thereby documented since 2021 and uploaded in the “Bodo and Dimasa Heritage Digital Archive” platform which uses Mukurtu, a content management system. The current digital archiving project on Dimasa is a part of the research grant supported by the Indian Council of Social Sciences Research (ICSSR) from 2023 till date. Community outreach programme, in general words, is a process where an organisation collaborates with the groups and individuals and creates shared experiences and actions for the benefit of a community. The paper will discuss the impact the community outreach programme has made on the Dimasa community from the region for their digital preservation, role of community engagement and financing, and the effectiveness of such programmes on the part of the archive team in collecting bulk data for the documentation and preservation purposes. It will further highlight the materials the archiving has produced as a result, and how Mukurtu serves as a medium in the promotion of their cultural heritages in the digital world. The paper ultimately will lead to understanding the outcomes for the Dimasa community, which the collaborative Dimasa project aims to serve as such. References Census of India. 2011.
