• “Cultural Heritage In Cyberspace”: A DAAD-Funded Project That Brought An Egyptian Delegation To Germany In Cooperation With The CNMS The project “Cultural Heritage in Cyberspace” is sponsored by the DAAD’s German-Egyptian Progress Partnership program. The idea behind it evolved in early 2018, based on a continuous communication with Egyptian academic institutions and scholars that dates back to the early nineties. Several visits carried out by the CNMS-Islamic studies’ scholars have allowed a better understanding of the essential academic needs of the institutes in Egypt and the conceivable methods German universities and research centers can offer to mutually benefit from cooperation in future academic-projects. The same counts for an exchange of expertise from the Egyptian to the German side as there is already, besides the vast existence of manuscripts, an experienced know how in Egypt to deal with cultural heritage in order to make it vital for the future.
