Stories making History

The problem: Covid-19 emergency is a first world emergency after World War II. Behind of numbers of confirmed cases and deaths, reported by Health Authorities (WHO, ECDC, Ministry of Health), there are people and their stories. The loss of loved ones is combined with the loss of the rituals by which people and the community mourn. We also lose the memories, the experiences, the values that represent a heritage for the community. The solution: Stories making History intends to be a website that collects life stories of deceased people because of Covid-19, told by family and friends, to help deal with grief on an individual level. On a collective level, the collection of stories makes it possible to share and enhance the memories, experiences, values, etc. of the deceased that constitute a Cultural Heritage of Humanity, as well as the landscape, architectural and artistic beauty of the communities. Survivors are encouraged, by filling out a form and inserting photos and videos, to share the stories of their loved ones. These stories can be viewed through an interactive map with a graphical interface that will allow you to locate and read the stories of people belonging to a specific state and country. From the numbers map you can move on to the map of people and their stories. The necessities in order to continue the project: the website must be developed in the next future. Impacts: Collective memory allows us not to forget, to commemorate, to collectively process mourning. This is fundamental individually to resume planning life keeping in mind the experience and value of those we have lost. Value: The memory will remain as a Cultural Heritage of Human
