Digital preservation of cultural heritage is increasingly recognised as crucial in resource-limited settings where traditional methods are insufficient. However, challenges such as limited digital literacy and inadequate infrastructure hinder effective implementation. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining literature review, stakeholder consultations, and case study analyses. Expert interviews were conducted to gather insights on current preservation practices. The findings highlight a critical need for culturally sensitive digital tools that are user-friendly and compatible with existing infrastructures. A pilot project in a rural Ugandan village successfully demonstrated the feasibility of such solutions. This analysis underscores the importance of integrating local knowledge and resources into digital preservation efforts to ensure sustainable outcomes. Policy recommendations include fostering community engagement, developing locally appropriate technologies, and establishing replication pathways for successful initiatives.
