In 2002, Civil Society Development Programme which is supported by
European Commission has started. The objective of the programme is to
consolidate the reconciliation efforts that have been carried between
Turkey and Greece. Turkish-Greek Civic Dialogue project, a component of
the Civil Society Development Programme's purpose is to strengthen the
civil society capacity for dialogue, networking and partnerships with the
civil society in between the two countries.

Within this framework the Lausanne Treaty Emigrants Foundation initiated
a project that aims to increase local awareness on architectural heritage
left from the exchange of populations between Turkey and Greece. The
project is carried out by the Lausanne Treaty Emigrants Foundation in
partnership with Conservation and Restoration Specialists Association,
Chamber of Architects, Municipality of Mustafapasa (Cappadocia-Turkey),
and the Hellenic Section of International Council on Monuments and Sites
(ICOMOS) with the collaboration of the Association of 'New Sinassos'.

To accomplish the goals of the project two workshops and two exhibitions
are proposed. Mustafapasa (Nevsehir) in Turkey and Rethymno (Crete)
from Greece have been chosen as the background of the proposed activities=
.
Five experts from Turkey and five experts from Greece will form the
leading team of the workshops which will last for a week in each location=
.

In a project that aims to increase awareness of cultural heritage to
reach as much participators as possible is necessary. Therefore, the
target group is composed of local population, members of municipalities,
members of non-governmental organizations, members of Chamber of
Architects, members of Association of Restorers, university students,
local-national media.

The workshops will give the chance for the first time to experts
from Turkey and Greece to discuss the issue of common cultural heritage
in the physical context of architectural heritage. They will enable
a mutual exchange of know-how, technical assistance and experience on
cultural heritage. The workshops will provide practical information
on the methodologies of conservation and restoration, and how to give
a second function and rename the buildings.

Exhibitions there will also be in Mustafapasa (Nevsehir) and in
Rethymno (Crete). Master plans, architectural plans and drawings of
the local architectural heritage as well as ethnographic material such
as holy icons, religious bookstands, manuscripts, priest's costumes
and sceptres, liturgical objects which have been removed from their
original places during emigration period, and old photographs, accounts o=
f
oral history will be displayed in the exhibition. An exhibition catalogue
will accompany to the activity.

The exhibitions will provide examination material for the workshops, and
will also constitute a basic database for a sustainable work. To ensure
the sustainability of the project, the results shall be published as a
report on the web page of the Lausanne Treaty Emigrants Foundation, along
with the exhibition material.

Even though the workshops and the exhibitions will take place in specific
places in Turkey and Greece, they will become a model of its kinds that
will most probably be repeated in other regions. The Project will provide
an increase in dialogue, a better understanding and eliminate political
prejudgements in relation to the conservation of the cultural heritage.
