Our Mission
Memoria Abierta's mission is to preserve the memory of what occurred during the period of state terrorism and its effects throughout argentine society, in order to enrich democratic culture.
The Human Rights organizations that comprise Memoria Abierta believe that joint action strengthens our presence in society and makes us more effective in the work toward the goals that unite us:
To preserve the memory of what happened during the period of state terrorism and its consequences throughout society.
To promote a social conscience that values active memory.
To articulate a social memory that influences argentine political culture, contributing to the construction of identity and the strengthening of democracy.
To prevent all forms of authoritarianism in future generations.
To construct a heritage that serves as testimony to what happened in the country during the period of state terrorism, and the subsequent struggle in search of truth and justice, that can be shared with society.

Some of our specific goals are:
To preserve and catalogue all files that include information about what occurred, from the period of state terrorism up to the present day.
To work towards the creation of a Museum in the city of Buenos Aires.
To carry out proposals and educational activities that contribute to the intergenerational transmission of the memories and the construction of the social memory.
