The exhibition aims to present portraits of women committed to the protection of heritage in conflict, post-conflict, or crisis regions. Many architects, archaeologists, site guardians, museum curators, art historians, restorers, or artisans work on the ground in sometimes complex contexts, safeguarding monuments, sites, museums, places of worship, or collections threatened by war, climate change impact, or natural disasters.
On the occasion of International Women's Day, the International Alliance for the Protection of Heritage (ALIPH) and the Luxembourg Commission for UNESCO celebrate these talented and courageous women, guardians of our memory.
Established in 2017 in Geneva, ALIPH is the main global fund exclusively dedicated to the protection or rehabilitation of heritage in crisis situations. It is a public-private partnership bringing together eight countries and three private donors. To date, ALIPH has supported nearly 500 projects in more than 37 countries, funding concrete initiatives carried out in collaboration with local partners, authorities, and communities.
Through heritage protection, ALIPH aims to contribute to peacebuilding and sustainable development. The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg is one of ALIPH's founding countries.
