Memory of the World Register – Asia and the Pacific
UNESCO initiative to preserve documentary items

The first inscriptions on UNESCO's Memory of the World Register were made in 1997. By creating a compendium of the world’s documentary heritage, including manuscripts, oral traditions, audio-visual materials, library and archive holdings, the program aims to promote the exchange of information among experts and raise resources for the preservation, digitization, and dissemination of documentary materials. As of December 2018, 429 main documentary heritages had been inscribed in the register, with 116 of these from Asia and the Pacific.

The Memory of the World Committee for Asia and the Pacific (MOWCAP) is a regional committee of UNESCO's global programme, maintaining a separate register. There are also national registers, including for Australia and New Zealand.

Items listed below are part of the UNESCO Memory of the World International Register. National and regional registers are listed separately.
