Blue Shield launches Humanitarian Cultural Heritage Protection Course

This article was first published by Blue Shield International.

Blue Shield International, together with Swansea University and Newcastle University, has developed a brief 4-part video series for humanitarian actors to:

  • demonstrate the links between cultural heritage protection and the humanitarian ecosystem,
  • explain why cultural heritage protection is important to people affected by crisis and why it should be considered a humanitarian issue, and
  • explore why and how it might be included in humanitarian response.

Each video in this series is presented by a different person connected to Blue Shield from around the world, showing the global impact of this vital issue.
