‘Salvem les Fotos’ on Campus of the Universitat de València

Faculty of Geography and History – Blasco Ibáñez Campus

Salvem les Fotos project, driven by the Universitat de València, has managed to restore more tan 2 million images from over a thousand families affected by the 2024 Dana. During 2025 and 2026, the restoring and digitalisation process will continue with new actions and conferences in every UV campus.

These conferences have two aims: to present the project and to train volunteers that want to contribute to preserve collective visual memory through photographic restoration.
