The Türkiye Earthquake Memory Project is an online repository to register, understand, and present how Türkiye remembers its past 100 years of earthquakes. It features newspaper coverage, and commemorative efforts including memory, museums, monuments, documentary, and fictional portrayals of earthquakes in audiovisual media.
The project is supported in part by funding from the Canada Research Chair in Architectures of Spatial Justice, an Internal Social Science and Humanities Development Grant (VP Research and Innovation), the Summer Undergraduate Research in Engineering (SURE) Program (Faculty of Engineering) and the Peter Guo-hua Fu School of Architecture at McGill University.
