Protecting heritage to build peace

Geneva, 16 November 2023 – The Foundation Board of the International alliance for the protection of heritage in conflict areas (ALIPH) met in Geneva on Tuesday 14 November for its 12th meeting. After six years at the helm of the Foundation Board, Dr. Thomas S. Kaplan passed the baton to the representative of France, Ms. Bariza Khiari, who was elected by unanimous consent for a three-year term as Chair. ALIPH members paid tribute to Dr. Kaplan, whose chairmanship was marked by the exceptional development of the Foundation, which has supported about 440 heritage protection or rehabilitation projects in over 35 countries. Dr. Kaplan will continue to serve as a member of the Foundation Board as a private donor. Two new members also joined the Board: President and CEO of the J. Paul Getty Trust, Dr. Katherine E. Fleming, and the representative of Cyprus, H.E. Spyros Attas.
