“…For instance, in the UK, heritage bodies, such as Historic England, run activities and programmes for schoolchildren and young people. Simultaneously, debates about the quality of life of young people worldwide and the need to rethink holistic approaches to education also underpin a reassessment of the strength of heritage’s contribution (Johnson et al, 2014). More broadly, heritage is transitioning from being seen as “solely heritage-related” to a “health and wellbeing-related” role, potentially supporting a social prescribing offer (Sektani et al, 2023; Darvill, 2023; Sofaer et al, 2021; Power, 2016).…”

This article contributes to a growing academic debate about the role of young people in safeguarding the memory of the past to support post-war rebuilding through physical urban reform and national rebranding. It also provides new opportunities for young people to amplify their voices after years of struggle. We pose the following question: How can the youth better leverage heritage to emphasise commonalities, cultural links, and educational understanding, which can break down ideological barriers and create sustainable peace? Through a critical thematic analysis of 45 open-ended interviews held in Iraq, we developed a set of recommendations that allows the youth to engage in dialogue around the country and its cultural heritage through oral history, testimonies, and documentaries. The outcomes of this research could enable the youth to reflect on their interpretation of heritage contestation and their active role towards safeguarding Iraq’s cultural heritage.

The Iraqi Institute for the Conservation of Antiquities and Heritage is a case study in how international cultural heritage professionals (archaeologists, conservators, architects, engineers) have been working to support the post-war recovery and redevelopment of the cultural heritage community in Iraq through a variety of educational and practical projects. Founded in 2008 with US government funding, and in collaboration with Iraqi government entities, the project has navigated the evolving public and heritage diplomacy environment over more than a decade. By working in the country, adapting educational programmes to on-the-ground realities, collaborating and partnering with governmental and academic Iraqi cultural heritage professionals in an constantly evolving political and cultural situation (often in crisis), the authors have supported (along with many others) capacity-building and sustainability of the Iraqi Institute for more than a decade.
