We are refugees working to preserve
our shared stories
Started as a shared idea from refugee archivists, Sharif Jamal and Ana Roeschley, ORSA is envisioned as a community-based archival resource open to all refugees in the United States. Now in its early conceptual stages, ORSA is partnering with UNT’s Digital Libraries to create digital collections for and by refugees, as well as openly available resources on best practices for archiving personal records for personal use.
