OHP

CAP is the only not-for-profit organisation in Pakistan that is building and maintaining an extensive digital archive to preserve our nation’s history and culture. CAP has focused its attention on the tradition of oral storytelling in Pakistan, emphasising the importance of such narratives in creating a platform for national memory. Since its inception, CAP through OHP has digitised more than 650,000 photographs from private and public collections and has collected over 5000 oral histories. Our archive offers one of the most unique selections of photography and is the only diverse collection of oral histories in Pakistan.

CAP Archive

CAP has recorded in its archive the momentum that led to the birth of Pakistan, as well as the activities in the early years of the new country. Our archive is comprised of materials that we have collected between 2007 and the present day, as well as official and personal collections donated to us::
