Montada promotes heritage value of Kairouan
02-08-2010.v.4_Page_1.jpg)
Teaching people from Kairouan about Kairouan? This is what is planned for September 2010 in four schools of this city in central Tunisia. It is essentially a teaching and learning tool, which has been developed by the Montada project and will be made available to teachers in Kairouan, through a project funded by the European Union to be implemented in six North African cities (Salé and Marrakesh in Morocco, Ghardaïa and Dellys in Algeria, Kairouan and Sousse in Tunisia). The aim: to raise awareness among people, starting with the youngest, about the importance of conserving architectural heritage.
This project is carried out within the framework of the “Euromed Heritage” programme, which has a total budget of 17 million Euros intended to be used to aid local populations in “appropriating their own cultural heritage”.
This is part of a series of features on projects funded by the EU’s Regional Programme, prepared by journalists and photographers on the ground or the ENPI Info Centre available in English, French and Arabic. (ENPI Info Centre)
