## UNESCO/Jikji Memory of the World Prize

UNESCO created the UNESCO/Jikji Memory of the World Prize in 2004 to promote the preservation of documentary heritage as a common heritage of humanity and to encourage its wide accessibility. The UNESCO/Jikji Prize is named after the Buljo jikji simche yojeol, the oldest existing book of movable metal print in the world, on the Memory of the World Register. The prize is awarded to individuals, institutions, or non-governmental organizations that have made a significant contribution to the preservation and accessibility of documentary heritage.

## Memory of the World 2022 Interactive Calendar for Children

For the World Children's Day, UNESCO teamed up with Barbanera offering children an amazing adventure around the globe to discover the 'Memory of the World'. The e-calendar is based on 12 items from the Memory of the World (MoW) International Register, which consists of important historical materials from around the globe. Each month Nala and Leo, two young characters, take their fellow children to a different part of the world, where they discover a local treasure and learn about what it signifies as part of the world’s collective history. Libraries, archives, museums as well as primary and middle schools can use the e-calendar to promote active learning about cultural heritage, thereby promoting intercultural dialogue and global citizenship among children. The e-calendar is available in English, Indonesian, Spanish, Italian and Swahili, as well as accessible via computer, tablet and as an application (Apple and Android).
