The ceremony, which was held in cooperation between the Directorate of Culture and the Circassian Charitable Society, comes according to Jaber Sajour, Director of Culture, as part of the Directorate's keenness to keep pace with cultural events and activities that contribute to raising the intellectual and social level, preserving the intangible heritage in society and the importance of passing it on to future generations.
