ICORP On the Road releases fifth episode 'Kartarpur Corridor - Collective Memories, Connected Histories'
On 14 February 2021, for Valentine’s Day, the ICORP on the Road team released its fifth episode that shows the power of love!
This episode tells the story of how the communities of India and Pakistan, who have parted into two countries a long time ago, have been taking care of each other's cultural heritage that was left on the other side of the border with love and respect.
For this episode which was filmed in India, the story writer is the Vice President of ICOMOS India, Gurmeet Sangha Rai and the narrator is the President of ICOMOS Pakistan, Fauzia Husain Qureshi.
Episode 5- “Kartarpur Corridor- Collective memories of Connected histories" shows the engagement of the local community in taking care of the heritage of the ‘other’ as a service. It further challenges the notion of whose heritage is it in times of displacement - and the relationship between cultural heritage and the local community, those ‘displaced’ and further the ‘relocated’.
