RIMA Foundation is celebrating two decades as a non-profit and non-governmental organisation that promotes access to information, raising public consciousness on the need for proper management and security of records and information, and encourages the overall development of the information management community for the benefit of humanity and the industry.

Today, virtually all organizations, regardless of size, possess and manage a legacy of records and information, accumulate a rapidly growing store of records/information, and anticipate a future that is mostly, but not entirely, electronic.

It’s estimated that more than 90% of the records/information being created today are electronic.

Coupled with the overwhelming growth of electronic messages – most notably e-mail and instant messaging – the management of records/information has become a critical business and social issue.

How that information is managed has significant business, legal, and technology ramifications. Ultimately, it doesn’t matter what medium is used to create, deliver, or store records/information when determining if content is a record and should be managed accordingly.

Now, individuals and organizations also produce a vast range of important records/information – such as letters, reports, emails, marketing materials, studies, engineering drawings, handwritten consultation notes, and committee minutes – all of which constitutes an organization’s memory of its processes and procedures, and its knowledgebase of its expertise, experience, and specializations.

For this reason, Records and Information Management Awareness Foundation (RIMA Foundation), was established as a brainchild of Dr Ayodeji Oyewole Oyedokun, the founder / chairman – Board of Directors at The International University of Information Management [IUIM].

RIMA foundation’s drive is to bring together knowledge and create awareness about information management and security to improve the information management/security awareness globally thereby promoting transparency and accountability in both public and private organisations.

“For many organizations and individuals, records/information will continue to be important for as far ahead as they can see even though they will rely increasingly on knowledge management technology”, Dr. Oyedokun said.

RIMA Awards now International Management Merit [IDMM] Awards 

The Foundation has also set up plans to appreciate the data​ & information management community through the International Management Merit [IDMM] Awards.

Coincidentally, Dr Ayodeji Oyewole Oyedokun will be marking his 50th birthday – it is a double celebration for him!

Formerly known as the RIMA Awards, this esteemed event celebrates excellence and innovation in Data, Information, Content, Archives, Records, Document Management & Security.

Since its inception in 2005, the RIMA Awards have been the beacon of recognition, highlighting outstanding efforts in promoting proper management and security of records and information.

As the largest event of its kind in Africa, these awards symbolize excellence and innovation in the IM, IT, and business world.

“By recognizing these efforts, we aim to emphasize the importance of effective records and information management systems, which are crucial for improved decision-making, operational efficiency, and compliance with legal and regulatory requirements”, he said.
