Preserving a pivotal chapter in Syrian democratic history, one document at a time.

Dr. Nazem al-Koudsi was the last elected President of Syria before the Baath Party coup of 1963. His family spent years digitizing and classifying over 5,000 documents, photos, parliament minutes, and personal archives to create a comprehensive digital library accessible to researchers and future generations. We built the platform that brings this archive to life.
A collection of over 5,000 historical documents, photographs, parliament minutes, and personal records needed to be structured, searchable, and accessible to researchers and the public in both Arabic and English. The content had to be organized to serve academic researchers as well as general visitors exploring Syria's democratic history.
We focused on building a content architecture that could handle the depth and variety of the archive: documents, photos, timelines, biographical content, and parliament minutes, each organized and cross-linked for research use. The CMS was designed to give the family's team full control over content while keeping the archive structured and discoverable.
The platform includes a bilingual CMS with structured content types for documents, photos, archives, and parliament minutes, a timeline module, biographical content management, and a document library with search and filtering capabilities. The architecture was built to support the growing archive as new materials are added.
The Presidential Library of Dr. Nazem al-Koudsi is now accessible to researchers and historians worldwide. Over 5,000 historical records are organized, searchable, and publicly available, ensuring that a significant chapter in Syria's political and democratic history is preserved and reachable for generations to come.
