Off to @ALIPH2023 @ALIPHFoundation conference on #culturalheritage in Abu Dhabi. Speaking on @abrahampath projects in Nineveh, #Iraq
@abrahampath I am a breakfast person! Looks delicious!
Back on a bike, and back in a desert, for the last few days. Both wonderful things that I’ve missed. Reading Edward Abbey in my tent, writing on Utah but apt too for here: “The red dust and the burnt cliffs and the lonely sky- all that which lies beyond the end of the roads.”
Wayfinding, up high. Storms coming in this afternoon. Fast miles towards shelter
High above the Great Zab River, heading deeper into the mountains on the #ZMTThruHike
High up in the mountains close to Shanidar Cave, following the old donkey tracks down towards the Great Zab River. Day 4 of #zmtthruhike
Long day out on the trail. Coming in just before sunset, evening light picking out the distant ridge-lines. A long time since breakfast, and mostly goats for company in the valleys. Heavy legs, light head. Happy heart. @ZagrosTrail #ZMTThruhike
So looking forward to making this a reality with @leonmccarron @ls07mp @AbrahamsPathUK @abrahampath uk.virginmoneygiving.com/charity-web/ch…
@abrahampath In which country is this? Is it the cited wealthy Nemrud in the Quran?
Save the date! On 27 July, join us for "Walking a Path to a World Beyond War" buff.ly/3y9Yz6E We will meet with the @abrahampath team to explore the successes & challenges of creating walking trails as a tool for economic development! #MiddleEast #war #peace #Palestine
@jweiss21 @abrahampath Great to see you, Josh! Hope you're doing well
Still time to sign up for today's webinar with @abrahampath! ALIPH's Executive Director @frelandv will talk about protecting cultural heritage sites in #Iraq & #Afghanistan. Register here 👉 bit.ly/3u3GQLI 📆Today at 6pm CET & 12pm EST.
Many thanks to @anisa_mehdi & the entire team at the Abraham Path Initiative @abrahampath for the excellent conversation yesterday on protecting #CulturalHeritage to #BuildPeace.
One more great episode of @abrahampath's webinar, "Meet Us on the Abraham Path." It's all about negotiation ... and walking ... and listening ... and more. Watch here: youtube.com/watch?v=1Irn2x…
It's always interesting to hear @jweiss21 speak, doubly so when he weaves together negotiation, storytelling and long-distance walking in the Middle East in the context of the mould-breaking @abrahampath initiative youtube.com/watch?v=1Irn2x…
@abrahampath tiene un champion en @Pontifex_es
