CRI's proposal, "The Rosetta Return Consortium," has been shortlisted from among 6000 entries to be featured at COP27. The Consortium is a partnership of over 22 local and international partners to monitor and confront climate change challenges in the Burj Rashid area as a model that can be applied to all archaeological and heritage environments threatened by the effects of climate change, as well as those communities claiming civilization rights and returning their looted treasures to their original environment.
CRI has launched an international initiative for the Return of Looted Antiquities (RLA) to their original discovery sites. The RLA initiative rests on the Universal Declaration of Civilization Rights principles. It aims to open a dialogue log and provide an outlet for a new way to tackle the return of the antiquities, arts, cultural artifacts, and materials looted or stolen from many countries during the colonial era.
Proposed by Professor Ahmed Rashed, Founding President of CRI, the Universal Declaration of Civilization Rights (UDCR), through its eight articles, recognizes and reaffirms that countries and nations possess collective rights to safeguard heritage structures, monuments, statues, and artifacts of all types and sizes derive their significance and distinctive character from their perceived historical and cultural values and their meaningful relationships with the sites, environments, nations, and civilizations that originated them.
