Museums, libraries and archives carry collections of photographs, sound-recordings, films and manuscripts that document indigenous peoples and traditional communities lives, cultural expressions and knowledge systems. A new awareness has emerged of indigenous peoples and traditional communities interests in owning, controlling and accessing this documentation. Importantly, this has led to recognition that the management of access and use of collections raises a number of challenges for museums, libraries and archives.
The objective of this study is to provide decision makers in the European Commission and other partner countries with sufficient information to identify European Commission cooperation activities with specific environmental objectives and to establish environmental safeguards for other activities.
