Broadcasters and audiovisual archives worldwide are digitizing their collections, expanding access, and making it easier to republish historically significant programs.
 
While this process raises complex copyright questions, it has also triggered urgent ethical debates: material created for past audiences can be offensive to contemporary viewers.
 
Archivists must therefore consider whether republication is appropriate - examining language, participant consent, the presence of vulnerable individuals or children, etc. Copyright law provides limited guidance on these ethical matters.
 
This workshop presents survey findings from the FIAT/IFTA VUC Commission and invites participants to discuss real cases. We will conclude by jointly drafting a set of ethical recommendations, which will serve as input to the VUC Commission’s project on archives and ethics.
