The Dhakira Center for Heritage Studies builds on a vibrant interdisciplinary research network within New York University Abu Dhabi, the NYU Global Network University and a wide range of local, regional and globally connected professional institutions and grassroots heritage communities.

Dhakira's signature Heritage Lab, in which researchers, educators and community stakeholders are brought together, is designed as Accretional Synergy Hubs. Through thematic research themes and focused research questions, Dhakira creates interdisciplinary workspaces that allow researchers to bridge differences in disciplinary approaches and research techniques across multiple fields in the Sciences, Arts and Humanities and Social Sciences.

Dhakira has five thematic research streams:

• Heritage, Landscapes and Material Culture
• Heritage, Memory and Identity
• Heritage and Science
• Digital Heritage
