Dear Colleagues,
Following below is a link to the newly launched website for the Saving Sudan’s Living Heritage Project which may be of interest to you. This is a British Council Cultural Protection Fund initiative in partnership with DCMS. The launch of the website precedes the #OurHeritageOurSudan Campaign which will start on the 1st November and run for 90 days to create support for Sudan’s amazing living cultural heritage. Please see the attached press releases for further information and respond directly to the campaign with any questions or comments.
As the site says:’Our project includes museums because Sudan’s living heritage has ancient roots – older than the pyramids. This invaluable and irreplaceable legacy is part of Sudan’s evolving cultural landscape even today. Museums can make connections over time and between communities. They provide civic spaces where people can learn about the past and collectively shape their legacy for themselves and future generations.’
All the best
