The World's Cultural Heritage: What is at Stake in the Middle-East?

International terrorism, civil wars and ongoing conflict have generated global humanitarian crises on an unprecedented scale, with the impact of disputes and unrest continuing to threaten many facets of human civilisation and culture. The effects on cultural heritage is often forgotten however, and remain a silent victim of wartime.
