Tenets: Using technology intentionally to build communities and enhance learning.
Annotation: This website contains faithful reproductions of the documents digitized by the Historic Archive of the National Police of Guatemala (the AHPN), as those materials were provided to the University of Texas. UT received the records in response to a request formally made under Guatemala’s freedom of information law (Ley de Accesso a la Información Pública Guatemala, Decreto Número 57-2008, which took effect in 2009). The materials the AHPN prioritized for digitization, and therefore the ones included here, are primarily those that correspond to the periods of peak repression in Guatemala – roughly from 1975 to 1985.
