Silk Roads Papers - 1st edition
This collection of research papers breathes life into the heritage of the Silk Roads. As the first of a series, it presents 12 research projects from the Silk Roads Youth Research Grant initiative, bringing new perspectives to light and contributing to a deeper understanding of the interactions and exchanges along the Silk Roads.
Launched by UNESCO, with the support of the National Commission of the People's Republic of China for UNESCO, this grant has inspired more than 2,500 young researchers since its launch in 2021. This initiative is part of the UNESCO Silk Roads Programme’s ongoing efforts to enhance understanding of the rich history, shared legacy, and enduring spirit of the Silk Roads.
Guided by our young scholars, this expedition promises to deepen your understanding of the Silk Roads' legacy, ensuring their historical importance remains vivid in our shared human story.
