Grant Writer for the Save Nubia Project

The mission of the Save Nubia Project (SNP) is to help raise national and international awareness about the pending flooding of the central areas of the ancient Kushite and Nubian civilizations in the Sudan (Base of human civilizations). There are a series of dams (from the 2nd through 5th cataracts) along the Nile completed or scheduled for construction, each of which will create a large reservoir and flood countless ancient archaeological sites and displace hundreds of thousands of people. Thus, the Save Nubia Project’s task is to document that the dam construction areas in northern and eastern Sudan are valuable World Heritage Areas that are in danger of being destroyed, and should be preserved. The SNP campaign has three goals: Conduct field research to document, record, and publish historical and archaeological evidence on the importance of the historic northern and eastern Sudan regions; Present compelling documentation that this rich archaeological region should be designated a network of UNESCO World Heritage Sites at risk, which would help protect the region from large dam construction and inundation. There are other sources of energy available in Sudan, such as solar panels, micro-hydro, and wind turbines; Assist the local Nubian people near the 2nd and 3rd cataracts of the Nile to build a series of museums to help preserve their heritage.
