The intangible cultural heritage of the mobility routes of the Bedouins of the Bekaa valley in Lebanon and in Jordan was at risk due to modernisation, marginalisation and political instability across the region.
Bedouin volunteers were taught skills to document, protect, archive and manage their cultural heritage.
