Jamkanah Project
/0 Comments/by

Jamkanah: A project aimed at preserving the intangible written and visual heritage of Yemeni families. It establishes an accessible online platform to document and digitize poems, drawings, and photographs held by Yemeni families, and to build the capacity of those who own these documents to preserve them using modern methods, ensuring their continuity. The project seeks to create a bridge between the literature and culture of the older generation and to reintroduce it to the new generation.

The name: Jamkanah is a diminutive of Jamkana, a common term among Yemeni families; it refers to the glass door separating public and private spaces, and means “display box.”

Jamkanah is funded by the British Council’s Cultural Protection Fund, in partnership with the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport.
