The founder of the rehabilitation project of the Old City of Aleppo, Adli Qudsi, has died in 2018. He has developed the rehabilitation project in the 1980s with prudence, patience and expertise, and accompanied it for many years. He also understood how to place this process on an international level: The recognition of the Old City of Aleppo as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the involvement of international institutional support. He was the co-founder of the association in Aleppo „Friends of the Citadel of Aleppo“.
Shortly after Adli Qudsi‘s death, the board of the Friends of the Old city of Aleppo association decided to dedicate a commemorative publication to him. This is the abridged Arabic version. http://www.aleppofreunde.de/language/en/2020/02/01/publication-announcement/
