Ways of creating a cultural environment in Karabakh: based on world experience

The restoration of cultural heritage in Karabakh, a region of Azerbaijan that has been freed from occupation, is a critical and complex task.This area, deeply connected to Azerbaijani culture, saw its historical sites, mosques, and cemeteries destroyed during the years of occupation.Azerbaijan is now focusing on restoring this cultural heritage, under the programs approved by President Ilham Aliyev.The process faces significant challenges, such as extensive minefields that delay both the return of residents and restoration efforts.Drawing on international examples, such as the reconstruction of Warsaw after World War II, Azerbaijan aims to adopt a systematic approach to revitalizing Karabakh's cultural environment.International cooperation, including with UNESCO, plays a crucial role in accelerating these efforts.By restoring religious sites, building cultural centers, and leveraging digital technologies, Azerbaijan strives not only to revive its historical heritage but also to boost cultural tourism and regional stability through this revitalization.
