Founders and Board of Trustees

Damascus History Foundation

Damascus History Foundation was established by a group of Syrians interested in the history of Damascus and its preservation. The Damascus History Foundation is managed by a Board of Trustees consisting of a chairman and eight members working in partnership with the founders to set the strategic objectives of the institution.

All internal affairs of the institution are managed and supervised by an executive management which consists of the executive director, the project managers and the heads of departments. The executive management represents the institution, manages its affairs, proposes business strategies, and works to achieve the objectives of the institution.

The members of the Board of Trustees have a wide range of expertise in fields such as economy, administration, architecture, international relations, culture and art, which contributes to achieving the objectives of the institution at all levels.
