  • Summary

  • The final conversation in our upcoming “Why Memory Matters in Palestine and Beyond” will be with Zaki Aslan, a cultural heritage specialist who served for 21 years as the Founding Director of ICCROM-Sharjah Regional Conservation Centre in the United Arab Emirates.

    In it, we explore different Palestinian initiatives designed to preserve tangible and intangible heritage and collective memory in the current context. The discussion will also examine how the cultural sector can support those initiatives to resist erasure and combat historical revisionism, drawing connections between Palestine and other ongoing conflicts.
