From its provincialization (1953), a series of architectural competitions were held in Misiones, which facilitated the subsequent construction of buildings that housed various functions of the new provincial state: administrative, educational, sanitary, tourist, etc. As expressions of the Modern Movement that was developing incipiently in Argentina during those years. These works are an eminent example of a type of architecture that illustrates a significant stage in the history of humanity and could together with others of the same style integrate the emblematic heritage of Argentina recognized by UNESCO, the Casa Curutchet (UNESCO World Heritage 2016). Increasing the list made up of the Perito Moreno Glacier (UNESCO World Heritage 1981), the Iguazu Falls and the Jesuit Missions of Guaraníes (UNESCO World Heritage 1984), the Humahuaca’s Quebrada and Hands’ Caves (UNESCO World Heritage 2003). At present, we are thinking that its process of conservation has a new edge in the digitization, signing that we have undertaken jointly with ICOMOS Argentina with a proposal we made in 2014 and that has been perfecting since then. This was possible because we have seen that the new means of interpretation and with online accessibility facilitates the dissemination of our rich in diversity heritage: its natural as cultural and tangible and intangible. For this we have designed a file that is being implemented to include the assets in a digital repository between the National University of Misiones and ICOMOS and then available to include the set of assets of Argentina. We are doing it with the conviction that we must contribute to the visibility of the goods and the digitization, which is one more, can contribute to their knowledge. We start by believing that what is not known, not wanted and what is not wanted, is not preserved.
