International/Cultural relationsGeneral Information
The Palestinian Heritage Costume Association began as a youth initiative involving participants from all regions of Palestine. It has since evolved into an organization dedicated to preserving and safeguarding Palestinian heritage, culture, and land. The association was founded in 2015 in response to clear attempts by the Israeli occupation to appropriate, distort, and falsify Palestinian attire. In April 2015, Israel participated in a fashion competition in Rome, Italy, where traditional Palestinian dress was falsely presented as Israeli, representing a significant theft of Palestinian heritage
Mission and Objectives
To foster national Belonging in Palestinian traditional dress through public celebrations, educational outreach, and cultural events, while countering efforts to distort or steal Palestinian heritage. The association seeks to be a bridge that connects Palestinians across the globe with their cultural roots.
