About the Diwan

Since March 2018, the CBRL, the GJU, the GPIA, the IFPO initiated an event – ‘Salon’ or ‘Diwan’ or ‘table ronde’ activities – to increase awareness of research on heritage and archaeology in Jordan. The idea is, together with invited specialists, to include students to discuss the latest developments and themes in archaeology and heritage practice. Suggested topics could be cultural heritage, archaeological studies, conservation, documentation, site and museum management, etc. Up to one to three days or half-day event bi-annually, depending upon themes selection, students, and specialist availability and resources.
