“Revive the Spirit of Mosul” is UNESCO’s most ambitious reconstruction campaign. It is based on three pillars: heritage, cultural life and education, as essential drivers for the recovery of Mosul and for life after ISIS.
UNESCO is rebuilding Al-Nouri Mosque, Al Hadba Minaret, Al-Tahera Church, Al-Saa'a Church - as well as 124 historic residential houses and the Al Ekhlas school. More than $105 million has been mobilized, thanks to the support of 15 international partners, in particular the UAE and the European Union.
On the 5th anniversary of the liberation from IS, UNESCO launched an open-air exhibition that shows the progress of its initiative to Revive the Spirit of Mosul: the reconstruction of heritage monuments, as well as the reconstruction of historic residential houses, and the revival of cultural life and education.
