Since its founding in the early 1970s, the Nordic Anthropological Film Association (NAFA) has worked to promote ethnographic films and visual anthropology all over the world. This article details NAFA's archival work, festival and conferences, its sponsorship of visual anthropology courses and workshops when no such offerings were available in universities, its role in piloting multimedia museum projects, as well as its information and publishing services. The article concludes with a listing of the annual events of the Nordic Anthropological Film Association 1979‐2005.
