Feedback on the adaptation of RiC model to the Colombian context

[Jhon Gonzalez]

Dear colleagues,

I would like to put forward for your consideration a document we are currently developing, which seeks to adapt the Records in Contexts (RiC) model to the Colombian context.

Given the specific cultural aspects, the challenges in its practical implementation, and the dualities faced in a country where archival description is still at an early stage of development, we are keen to ensure that this adaptation is not only technically sound but also sensitive to the realities of our environment.

For this reason, we are open to — and indeed welcome — all kinds of comments, observations, and suggestions that you may have. Your perspectives will be of great value in refining the proposal and ensuring that it resonates both locally and internationally.

In addition, I would like to raise a question regarding copyright considerations: as our work is not a literal reproduction of the RiC model but rather an adaptation to a specific national context, what would be the appropriate way to address copyright and intellectual property issues? Any guidance or experiences on this matter would be most helpful.

Thank you in advance for your time and contributions.

Kind regards,

Jhon Gonzalez
