"Virtual" visits to historic sites nearby could be created, thereby widening the access the people will have to Nubia by shortening cultural and geographical distances. The existing Cultural Centre at Kerma can serve as a pilot project for Wadi Haifa. The importance of strong participation and support from the local community has already been demonstrated in Kerma. The Centre could include a Cultural Village for artistic engagement with Nubian ideas. This Cultural Village could focus on the interaction between Nubian art and concerned individuals. The Village could serve as a beacon that would transmit insights on Nubian art and culture to the outside world by providing a home for a variety of activities: the analysis of traditional motifs in Nubian decoration, the study of traditional Nubian wall paintings, the exhibition of contemporary Nubian visual art, the staging of local drama as well as theatrical interpretations of Nubian mythical histories such as the internationally renowned composition Aida, the provision of artist residen-cies for Nubian and Nubia-focused writers in contemporary literature, and the provision of artisan workshops for preserving important aspects of Nubian culture such as the utilitarian arts of pottery and basket weaving. Efforts could also be made both to preserve and to revitalize important aspects of traditional dress such as the women's garment, the jarjdar. A Cultural Village that supports artistic engagement with Nubian ideas would provide an important stimulus for the flowering of Nubian culture, both in Wadi Haifa and abroad. The Cultural Centre could also include a Research and Documentation Unit for Nubian songs, poetry, drama and memories of Nubia before the flood. An urgent task will be to contact elderly residents and record their memories of those parts of Nubia which are now under water. ? (Seite 35 / Wadi Halfa) ? (u.v.v.a.) ISBN 9785439100590
