In the latest of its series of Eurojar features, the Lebanese daily L’Orient Le Jour has published an article highlighting the initiative of the EU funded project “Foundations for a Strong Future: Youth in Lebanon and Jordan Promote Cultural Heritage” to involve young Lebanese and Jordanians in the promotion of their cultural heritage.
