Cultural Policy of Non-Western Countries: Egypt

"The arts are not always in a prominent place on the political agenda in Africa, Latin-America and Asia. Nevertheless, an increasing number of governments recognise the importance of culture in itself and in connection to social and economic development. Part ten in a series on cultural policy in non-Western countries."

"In the 1960s, Egypt initiated the first international UNESCO campaign for the protection of cultural heritage. At the time, the Nubia monuments were threatened by the construction of the Aswan dam.

The Supreme Council of Antiquities is responsible for the conservation and protection of all antiquities and archaeological finds in Egypt. The council's history dates from 1859, when it was known as the Department of Antiquities. Since 2002, archaeologist Dr. Zahi Hawass has been in charge as secretary, but ultimate responsibility lies with the Minister of Culture."
