UNESCO has launched a public consultation on the objectives,
practicalities, costs and expected results of a "World Day for
Audiovisual Heritage" to be celebrated annually on 27 October to build
global awareness of the various issues at stake in preserving the
audiovisual heritage. It is vital that all interested parties should
contribute to the debate. UNESCO has therefore established an online
platform with background documents, a public forum and a
questionnaire
