The extensive documentation created by Israeli citizens in the wake of the October 7th attack and the war that followed constitutes an invaluable historical source. “The October 7th Civil Archive" is dedicated to ensuring the long-term preservation of these sources, which play a crucial role in any future investigation into the contemporary social experience.
The archive’s primary goal is to assemble a comprehensive depository of records that will give voice to the civic aspects of the October 7th War, within its broader historical context. Created as an innovative and independent archive within an academic framework, it is designed to collect and preserve the digitally born documentation created today, making it readily accessible for future research.
