The Coalition for Canadian Digital Heritage (CCDH), formerly the National Heritage Digitization Strategy, is a cross-sectoral coalition of memory organizations committed to expanding digital access to Canada’s cultural heritage. We strive to build an inclusive community of practice; enabling and coordinating collaboration, capacity, and resources to advance shared priorities.

By uniting as a community, we more effectively harness the available resources and advocate for a sustainable future for Canadian digital heritage. 

The CCDH acknowledges the territories of Indigenous nations and peoples that exist in lands now known as Canada. The CCDH commits itself to respecting the inherent rights of Indigenous peoples to the dignity and diversity of their cultures, traditions, histories and aspirations.
