ABSTRACT In 2008, the Iraqi Institute for the Conservation of Antiquities and Heritage (IICAH) was established in Erbil, Iraq, as part of the US State Department’s Iraq Cultural Heritage Program (ICHP). The goal was to provide Iraqi professionals with long-term theoretical and practical training in conservation and historic preservation. Years of war and sanctions left Iraq's cultural heritage sector unable to engage with the international preservation community and with limited access to resources. Over the past decade, the IICAH has become a model for conservation training in post-conflict areas. This paper documents the creation of an archive related to the IICAH’s development between 2008 and 2017 and the conducting of oral history interviews included in the archive. Individuals involved with the IICAH in varying capacities were interviewed, including advisors, instructors, and students, many of whom were responsible for its genesis. By presenting the methodologies and major themes of these interviews, it is argued there is great value in documenting heritage preservation professionals’ experiences with capacity-building projects for future analysis and reflexivity. The IICAH Archive is part of the University of Delaware’s Disaster Research Center archives and will serve as a resource for others creating and analyzing international conservation education programs.

2008–2017年伊拉克的录音和存档保护教育方法

摘要2008年，作为美国国务院伊拉克文化遗产计划（ICHP）的一部分，在伊拉克埃尔比勒成立了伊拉克古物与遗产保护研究所（IICAH）。目的是为伊拉克专业人员提供有关保护和历史保护的长期理论和实践培训。多年的战争和制裁使伊拉克的文化遗产部门无法与国际保护界交往，获得资源的渠道也很有限。在过去的十年中，IICAH已成为冲突后地区保护培训的典范。本文记录了与IICAH在2008年至2017年之间的发展有关的档案的创建以及档案中包含的口述历史访谈。与IICAH有关的个人以不同的身份接受了采访，其中包括顾问，讲师和学生，其中许多人是其根源。通过介绍这些访谈的方法和主要主题，有人认为在记录遗产保护专业人员的能力建设项目经验方面有很大的价值，以便将来进行分析和反思。IICAH档案库是特拉华大学灾难研究中心档案库的一部分，将作为其他机构创建和分析国际保护教育计划的资源。有人认为，记录遗产保护专业人员在进行能力建设项目方面的经验具有很大的价值，以便将来进行分析和反思。IICAH档案库是特拉华大学灾难研究中心档案库的一部分，将作为其他机构创建和分析国际保护教育计划的资源。有人认为，记录遗产保护专业人员在进行能力建设项目方面的经验具有很大的价值，以便将来进行分析和反思。IICAH档案库是特拉华大学灾难研究中心档案库的一部分，将作为其他机构创建和分析国际保护教育计划的资源。
