SOUTH AFRICAN SOCIETY OF ARCHIVISTS

The South African Society of Archivists (SASA) is a professional body established with the sole intention of promoting research and knowledge sharing among Archives, Records, and Information Management (ARIM) practitioners in South Africa. Furthermore, SASA promotes accountability through the development of best practice guidelines and expertise in Archives, Records, and Information Management (ARIM). Over and above, the emergence of the fourth Industrial Revolution requires organizations to review and align processes, hence the role of SASA in research and knowledge sharing. To achieve its role, SASA works closely with relevant stakeholders to regulate proper care and access to records.
