Protecting heritage to build peace
France’s Minister of Culture, Catherine Pégard, marked the run-up to the 43rd European Heritage Days by hosting an event in Paris on September 16 dedicated to ALIPH’s work. The initiative echoed the theme of this year’s edition, “Heritage at Risk: Revive, Resist, Reimagine.” On this occasion, she presented the book ALIPH: Heritage Reborn, published by Assouline, and launched the first major event marking the Foundation’s 10th anniversary. In less than ten years, ALIPH has supported more than 650 projects in 65 countries and mobilized more than USD 140 million to protect threatened heritage.
