INTRODUCTION
Within the framework of the Turkish-Greek Civic Dialogue Programme, launched by
the European Commission, a project has been undertaken with the aim of increasing
local awareness concerning the architectural heritage left from the exchange of
populations of 1923 in Turkey and Greece. Initiated by the Foundation of Laussane
Treaty Emigrants, the project had among its partners, the Association of Conservation
and Restoration Experts (KORDER), the Chamber of Architects and the Municipality
of Mustafapasa in Turkey, and the Hellenic Section of the International Council on
Monuments and Sites (lCOMOS) in Greece. The project, titled ‘Developing Local
Awareness Concerning the Architectural Heritage Left from the Exchange ofPopulations
in Turkey and Greece’, or ‘Common Cultural Heritage’ in short form, aimed to create
an opportunity for members of related non-governmental organizations, municipalities
and the local populations of both countries to appraise the cultural heritage left from
the emigrants and discuss the criteria for its protection.
The main activities of the project consisted of conferences, workshops and exhibitions
held in the towns of Sinasos / Mustafapasa (Nevsehir-Cappadocia, Turkey) on 18-24
September 2004 and in Rethymno (Crete, Greece) on 21-27 October 2004, lasting a
week in each location. In the workshops, groups led by five experts from each side
discussed issues such as conservation and restoration methodology and the reuse of
buildings, in the physical context of the architectural heritage, enabling a mutual
exchange of technical know-how. In the exhibitions plans, architectural drawings and
old photographs of the settlements and buildings were displayed, as well as scientific
and oral history documents and ethnographic material belonging to the emigrants. To
ensure the sustainability of the project, the workshop and conference results and the
exhibition material was placed on the internet and compiled in databases and publications.
Also the whole process, in both countries, was filmed by a crew from TRT (Turkish
Radio and Television Corporation) and turned into a 30 minute documentary film
named ‘The Heritage Left from the Population Exchange’ and was aired on TRT-2.
It is expected that this civil society project between Turkey and Greece will become
a model to be adopted in other regions in both countries. The project will help provide
an increase in dialogue, improve mutual understanding and eliminate political prejudices
in relation to the conservation of the cultural heritage.
