Absent Archives – Absent, Not Forgotten

Absent Archives is a platform and community for memory workers, keepers, and those engaging with what is missing: oral histories, erased voices, family and community archives, and stories that never make headlines. Across South Asia, our histories are shaped not only by destroyed records but also by deep and persistent silences. How do we make sense of the past when so much is never documented?

Powerful memory work is happening all around us, often in isolation. Absent Archives aims to change this by creating a space for sharing, learning, and building a collective vocabulary of remembrance. This launch talk marks the beginning of many conversations to follow.
