Palestinians Receive UNESCO Memory Award 2026
Palestinian researcher and historian Abdul Latif Abu Hashem and researcher Hanin Al-Omzi have won the 2026 UNESCO/Jikji Memory of the World Award, in recognition of their efforts to preserve Palestinian documentary heritage and manuscripts threatened with loss in the Gaza Strip. They digitized more than 25,000 pages of ancient manuscripts, covering the Ottoman and Mamluk eras, and contributed to the establishment of Gaza’s first manuscript restoration laboratory. Their efforts are considered crucial in preserving the historical identity of the Palestinian people and solidifying collective memory, especially amidst ongoing war and aggression on the Gaza Strip.
