How can digital tools help safeguard cultural memory in one of the world’s most historically layered cities? Sensing Jerusalem is a new collaborative digital art–making and skills-building initiative designed to empower young Palestinians through hands-on training in digital heritage technologies.
The team together with external experts in digital humanities, will deliver a series of capacity-building workshops at the Yabous Cultural Centre in East Jerusalem, over a period of four months. Selected Palestinian students will gain practical experience with accessible digital tools and creative workflows, enabling them to document, interpret, and share local heritage in new and innovative ways.
