UNESCO is pleased to invite you to the closing event of the project 'Support to Livelihoods through Cultural Heritage Development,' funded by the EU Regional Trust Fund Syria - MADAD, in response to the Syrian crisis.
UNESCO, the EU and partners have united in this effort to secure dignified, sustainable livelihoods and economic opportunities for Syrian refugees, as well as IDPs and host communities in Jordan and Iraq. By utilizing culture as a resilience-building tool, this initiative has empowered individuals to participate in maintenance, rehabilitation, and conservation works at six heritage sites in the northern Governorates of Mafraq and Irbid in Jordan, as well as at eight heritage sites in Dohuk and Erbil Governorates, including the World Heritage site of Erbil Citadel, in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq.
The event will feature a photo exhibition and musical performance, followed by a reception.
