    EP 6: Collective Memory: Resisting Erasure with Zaki Aslan
    Jan 13 2025

    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.

    EP 5: All We Lose: Mourning and Reclaiming Cultural Heritage with Sahera Bleibleh
    Jan 13 2025

    Cultural heritage is a central part of our lives – informing our habits, our memories and our happiness. This also makes it a target during times of war and conflict.

    The fifth conversation in our “Why Memory Matters in Palestine and Beyond” series will examine the rich cultural heritage found in Gaza and other parts of Palestine, how it lives and is transmitted in diaspora communities, and why its destruction is causing irreparable loss. Our guest will be Sahera Bleibleh, an Associate Professor at the United Arab Emirates University, specializing in architecture, urban design and planning.
