Other Monuments project offers interactive walking routes where the city memory and history are brought to light. The routes spread throughout the selected region are based on historical stories as well as the personal memories of the disabled, displaced, exiled and immigrant peopleç
After each event, contents and contributions of the participants from each region are included to the permenant archive of the Other Monuments project to help researchers investigating city history and migrant experiences.
