Oorlog, familie en transmissie
Collaboratie en verzet tijdens de Tweede Wereldoorlog in de familiale en publieke herinnering in Belgie
Guerre, famille et transmission
Les mémoires familiales de la résistance et de la collaboration durant la Seconde Guerre mondiale en Belgique
In the project TRANSMEMO historians and psychologists investigate how Belgian families with a history of collaboration or resistance remember and experience the legacy of the Second World War. During a full-day program TRANSMEMO will present the results of the research while political scientists, psychologists and historians will reflect on the legacy of this past.
This study day takes place from 9.30h to 17.00h in the senate of Belgium. The program is aimed at a wider audience, with artistic breaks and a debate between opinion formers from both language communities. Specialists will also give advice on the existing sources to reconstruct one's own family history.

Intelligence artificielle et sciences participatives dans les archives judiciaires d'Ancien Régime
Le secteur archivistique est en révolution. A l'aide d’archives souvent centenaires, plusieurs initiatives sont prises pour mettre sur pied une toute nouvelle infrastructure de recherche. Davantage de sources sont mises à disposition via la numérisation, le bénévolat, les sciences participatives (Citizen Science), l’application de l’intelligence artificielle et la création de fichiers et de bases de données avec moteurs de recherche. Les possibilités de recherches deviennent donc de plus en plus amples. Rendez-vous aux Archives générales du Royaume si vous souhaitez en savoir plus sur ce type de projets.

16-09-2022 | Workshop 'Social Hotspots'
Artificiële intelligentie en burgerwetenschap in gerechtelijk archief uit het ancien régime
De archiefwereld staat aan de vooravond van een revolutie. Op basis van vaak eeuwenoude archieven wordt op verschillende plaatsen de aanzet gegeven voor een hele nieuwe onderzoeksinfrastructuur. Door digitalisering, het werken met vrijwilligers, Citizen Science (burgerwetenschap), de toepassing van artificiële intelligentie en het creëren van doorzoekbare bestanden en databanken wordt steeds meer materiaal beschikbaar. Onderzoeksmogelijkheden worden parallel steeds ruimer. Dergelijke projecten plaatsen we centraal in deze workshop in het Algemeen Rijksarchief.
