| Introduction | The Antiquities Coalition unites professionals from a diverse background joined in the fight against cultural racketeering – a global problem. A diverse group of archaeologists, technology experts, writers and scholars came together around our common interest in protecting cultural heritage. The International Coalition to Protect Egyptian Antiquities (ICPEA) – an initiative of the Antiquities Coalition – was launched. Invited by the Egyptian government to discuss ways to best support them, the ICPEA and the Egyptian Ministry of Antiquities developed a public private partnership. The Partnership covers three main categories – training, education, and social entrepreneurship. Our mission is to safeguard global heritage while inspiring people to appreciate our shared culture and empower local communities to steward and protect it. |
