MOWID (Memory of the World Indonesia) is a digital archive portal jointly managed by UNESCO and the National Archives of the Republic of Indonesia (Arsip Nasional Republik Indonesia, ANRI). The portal provides online access to Indonesia's inscribed documentary heritage items under UNESCO's Memory of the World (MoW) Programme, as well as materials registered under Indonesia's national Memori Kolektif Bangsa (MKB, or National Collective Memory) initiative.
The UNESCO Memory of the World Programme was established to safeguard documentary heritage of global significance. Indonesia has been an active participant, and oversight of the national MoW committee transferred from LIPI (Indonesian Institute of Sciences) to ANRI in September 2021. The MOWID portal was developed under this framework to aggregate and provide access to digitized documentary heritage materials.
MOWID hosts thousands of digitized items, including photographs, archival documents, and film and video content. Notable collections include:
The portal is built on the AtoM (Access to Memory) open-source archival software platform.
MOWID is freely accessible online in both Indonesian and English. Users can browse, search, and view digital objects. The portal is managed from the ANRI headquarters in Jakarta.
