Policy Templates for Digital Cultural Heritage (DCH)

Policy Templates for Digital Cultural Heritage (DCH) serve as structured, ready-to-use guides that help museums, archives, universities, and cultural organisations establish consistent and responsible practices when working with digital materials. They provide clear frameworks for ethics, digitisation workflows, copyright and intellectual property, community consultation, data governance, and digital exhibition standards. These templates ensure that contributors, staff, and partners follow safe, culturally sensitive, and sustainable processes when creating or managing 3D scans, digital archives, and immersive experiences. While adaptable to different institutional needs, they offer a solid foundation that organisations can customise to align with their own policies, cultural protocols, and operational realities.
