The Taarikh (meaning “History”) project examines in its general context the presence of Palestinians after their displacement in 1948 and before, and the possibility of chronicling ancestral stories that formed an important part of the history and identity of Palestine in the form of a series of films that will be shown in more contemporary places and contexts. Young people will be involved in the various stages of research and in teh creation of a platform to publish these stories. The aim of this research is to preserve what have been neglected by the Palestinians on the one hand and the Israeli occupation on the other because preserving the Palestinian footprint is a right, given that the Palestinians are the original inhabitants of this land.
