In Syria we Trust

The Tuscia Opera Festival, where Lubana Quntar will sing the role of Queen of the Night With such a rich and diverse heritage, the Syrian Trust for Development’s Culture and Heritage division works round the clock to ensure the Syrian public experiences products of this culture, as well as commemorating it through documentation before it is lost to us forever.

“The way we view culture, it’s not a luxury or an accessory, but rather it is completely important to developing our country; it develops our image and our sense of self,” says Bissan Khadra, cultural communication officer for the Culture and Heritage (C&H) division of the Syrian Trust for Development.
Active since November of 2007, C&H has dedicated itself to supporting Syrian cultural initiatives, and the enhanced interaction between Syrian heritage and those of others.
“In this sense, all Syrians have a share in it, and all Syrians are involved in it,” adds Khadra.
The division’s work is grounded in a belief that cultural development in Syria is both an integral part and a vehicle for the overall development of the country.
