I am excited to join Preserving Legacies because I believe climate interventions must be led by the local community—the true keepers of intangible heritage who observe these sites daily. It is also vital for Palestinian heritage to be represented on this platform, ensuring our region’s legacy is a central part of the global conversation on climate resilience.
