May 25, 2019
he bicommunal technical committee on cultural heritage is looking for young people via Instagram to take an active role in promoting and preserving Cyprus’ diverse cultural heritage.
The committee’s youth ambassador programme was announced at an event at the Home for Cooperation in the buffer zone on Thursday evening.
Under the new programme, 40 Greek and Turkish Cypriots aged between 18 and 35 will be chosen to act as heritage youth ambassadors.
Young Cypriots are asked to post at least three photos or a 30-second video depicting cultural heritage sites on the island accompanied by a text on why culture is important to them.
