Klaus Mueller, website specialist, participated in two days of meetings in January to lay groundwork for the Czech National Memory Project, whose goal is to preserve the history of the Czech Republic during the forty years of the Totalitarian regime. The project will include a website that will be used to collect documents, oral histories and artifacts. On April 8, Dr. Mueller met with members of the Board for the Czech National Memory Project. From this meeting, it became clear that this project will require long-term funding that has not yet been identified. It also became apparent that there was a division of views on the project's goals.
Jillian Poole and James Bradburne returned to Prague in late June, at the request of the Board, to assist in the development and refinement of the project. The Board achieved final agreement on website design, future responsibilities of the Board and the executors of the website, contributions to be included, funding options, etc. A final meeting is scheduled to resolve a variety of pending issues. In light of the devastating floods that Prague experienced in early summer, the project has been temporarily put on hold.
