Continuity, Change, and the Future of Urban Heritage

Activity: Talk or presentationInvited talk

Description

Preservation, Production and Reproduction: Urban Heritage Transformation around the World invites scholars from a variety of disciplines to explore the dynamic relationship between preserving cultural heritage and fostering urban growth. Our goal is to understand how cities worldwide balance heritage preservation with economic development, social cohesion, and sustainability. By gathering diverse perspectives, this conference seeks to redefine how heritage shapes the future of cities and contributes to policies, education, and practices that support both cultural continuity and urban innovation.
Case studies are presented that explore the balance between economic development and cultural heritage preservation, as well as papers examining how heritage not only connects to the past but also evolves in the present, guiding future directions. Comparative studies, whether in one presentation or in the form of panels, are especially welcome. Through a strong integration of theory and empirical research, we aim to push the boundaries of existing knowledge, reframe our understanding of “heritage,” and contribute to the development of public policy, education, and sustainable strategies in heritage preservation and urban development.
