Project summary
Many sites - including major rock art sites, mosques, forts, extensive settlements and various burial sites – have now been formally documented on a project database.
A tourism strategy has been created for the islands and is working to raise awareness with local schools and Soqotri poetry festivals that promote the use of the endangered Soqotri language. The project team has also delivered a number of community awareness and training events.
