CHI Video: What is Heritage And Why is it Important?
This short, educational video (only 72 seconds) was produced by ASOR’s Libyan heritage partners as part of an effort to create online content in Arabic that is especially useful during the ongoing COVID-19 global pandemic. The video explains why heritage preservation is important for Libya today, and into the future. It is part of ASOR’s efforts to partner with Libyan colleagues to raise awareness about cultural heritage, and thus support the bilateral cultural property agreement between Libya and the United States.
The video was funded by grants from the ALIPH Foundation, the U. S. State Department’s Cultural Antiquities Task Force, and the U. S. Embassy to Libya, External Office (LEO).
