We sat down with Amira Souliman and Abeer Saed Eledeen, conservators at Takiyyat Ibrahim al-Gulshani–a 2018 World Monuments Watch site–to discuss their approach to documenting the historic complex and what drives their passion for the preservation of cultural heritage.
Ousmane Kounta is a Malian artist and World Monuments Fund (WMF) volunteer who is currently working with the WMF conservation team at Wat Chaiwatthanaram in Thailand. In this blog post, Ousmane shares his experiences from the field.
Like many of you, we at World Monuments Fund have been thinking a lot lately about the Black Lives Matter movement, the killing of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery, and many others, and the conversations and protests that have followed.
