<h4 style="text-align:start" id="the-selected-organization:-imotiro-and-desarquivo-project">The selected organization: Imotirõ and Desarquivo project</h4>
<p style="text-align:start"><a href="https://imotiro.org/" rel="noopener" target="_blank" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin">Imotirõ</a> is a cultural association of researchers, educators, activists, and artists working on interdisciplinary knowledge production. They applied to the Resilient Grant with the hope of recovering one of their most significant projects, Desarquivo. Desarquivo is an <strong>extensive digital archive documenting feminist, anarchist, and anti-racist activis</strong>m in Brazil since 2011. It held more than 1,500 documents, including texts, artistic practices, and self-organized political movements, dating back to the late 1990s. However, due to technical and financial constraints, the project had become increasingly <strong>unstable and was at risk of disappearing</strong>.</p>
<p style="text-align:start">When receiving their submission to the Resilience Grant, we decided that the case complied with our technical and organizational selection criteria. Technically, they had sufficient backup of their lost content. Organizationally, there's alignment since they are a purpose-driven organization that creates positive social impact for collectives facing systemic inequity and prejudice, while adhering to open knowledge ethics.</p>

<h4 style="text-align:start" id="at-risk-of-dissappearing">At risk of dissappearing</h4>
<p style="text-align:start">Desarquivo was initially developed on Drupal, a powerful but resource-intensive content management system. Over time, the platform became outdated, making it difficult to maintain: the version of Drupal used in Desarquivo stopped being maintained by the development community in 2016. The <strong>instability of the Drupal-based site</strong> and the diminishing support for its version in free software communities posed a significant risk to the archive’s accessibility. Additionally, the archive was hosted on Njira, a <strong>shared server that had reached full capacity</strong>, preventing further updates and maintenance.</p>
