ABSTRACT

The restoration and the adaptation of the Hosh al Etem site in the historic centre of Birzeit in Palestine represents a successful cooperation between the Palestinian NGO RIWAQ based in Ramallah, which has designed and realized the project, and the Walloon Heritage Institute (IPW) and Wallonia Brussels International (WBI). The site restored since 2012 houses visiting professors invited by Birzeit University, as well as local and international residing artists.
