This week will be fully dedicated to #Iraq where ALIPH supports almost 30 projects. Meetings with the State Board of Antiquities & Heritage #SBAH & site visits. Thank you Iraq for your warm welcome!
📆 Today: a visit to the Arch of Ctesiphon in Taq Kasra, south of Baghdad, where we are supporting emergency stabilization measures implemented by @IraqHSP, @iconem & #SBAH. What a magnificent site, what a breathtaking vault!
Yesterday, in #Mosul, ALIPH spoke with the teams working on the Mosul Museum project to rehabilitate the building and its collection, being implemented by @MuseeLouvre & the @smithsonian. #Iraq
Then, it was off to Tutunji House to see how the rehabilitation project of this late-Ottoman house is progressing. This project is being implemented by @UPennNELC, #SBAH & the ECM team at Mosul University. #Mosul#Iraq#ProtectingHertiage#BuildingPeace
As the ALIPH mission to #Iraq draws to a close, have a look at @frelandv's discusion last month with @anisa_mehdi from @abrahampath on the project to save the Arch of Ctesiphon from collapsing:
