Caucasus Heritage Watch (CHW) is a dedicated research initiative focused on the preservation of cultural heritage in the Caucasus region, led by a team of committed archaeologists from Cornell and Purdue Universities. The organization specializes in heritage forensics, utilizing advanced satellite imagery and open-source media to monitor, document, and report on endangered and damaged cultural sites.

CHW engages in comprehensive projects that include the Armenian Heritage of Nakhchivan and Azerbaijani Heritage of Nagorno-Karabakh, producing regular monitoring reports to inform the public and relevant stakeholders about cultural heritage at risk. Through their innovative Monitoring Dashboard and Story Maps, CHW offers a detailed view of the impacts on historic sites, as well as a platform for community involvement.

The organization actively invites support through tax-deductible donations, ensuring the sustainability of their vital work. With a mission centered on research and advocacy, CHW continually updates its findings through a blog and media engagement, cementing its role as a leader in heritage preservation.
