Rozana 5th Heritage week - 2012
Historic area of Birzeit Town -- Ramallah Governorate -- State of Palestine
27 June -- 1 July 2012
It is an annual event that aims at supporting the development of rural Palestine utilizing the principle of participation and partnership promoting rural towns as a rich source of heritage, civilization and tourism on the map of Palestine. The Heritage Week is a prototype for what this historic area could become throughout the year; an active society and cultural area that can attract visitors from nearby as well as afar and contribute to building and spreading heritage as a living example of archeological heritage that is being rehabilitated for use in social, scientific and cultural projects bringing revenue, which contributes to creating job opportunities and income sources for Palestinian youth in rural areas.
As part of its cultural and heritage domain, the Rozana Association initiated the annual Birzeit Heritage Week, which has become an important part of Palestine's summer activities. Heritage Week attracts thousands of people every year to the historic area of Birzeit with musical performances, folkloric dances, theatre plays, children's activities and games, and various artistic exhibitions, including handcrafts, Palestinian embroidery, agricultural products, and many other art and culinary exhibitions, including an international court where different participating nationalities display their heritage and identity. The streets of Birzeit celebrate this event with the heritage theme My Country ... My Heritage as it becomes one of the icons of Palestinian cultural scene.
Through the celebration of Heritage Week, Rozana aims to revive authentic Palestinian traditions and cultural heritage in order to raise awareness concerning their importance as fundamental pillars for future development. Every year The Heritage Week brings a number of new additions to the bundle of activities prepared to make everyone's visit as enjoyable as possible.
