Provincial Memory Commission
The Provincial Memory Commission was created by Law No. 9286 and is made up of representatives of civil society organizations that have experience working on Human Rights issues, representatives of the Executive and Legislative Power and the Judiciary (all at the provincial level) and representatives of the academic sector. The Commission is part of the Provincial Memory Archive (PMA), which preserves information on human rights violations that took place during the last military dictatorship and carries out awareness-raising policies on this matter, aimed at preventing human rights violations. The main function of the Commission is to formulate the Provincial Memory Archive?s management plan, which decides how the historical archives and museums of the PMA are organized and preserved and establishes the guidelines for their use. The Commission is also in charge of approving the Statute of the APM and decides whether the institution accepts or rejects grants, donations, bequests, inheritances or other contributions.
