鈥�Dynamic and Migrating Landscapes: Re-visioning Heritage Conservation鈥� is a one day event that aims to erode the dichotomies of tangible/intangible and cultural/natural heritage as well as give space to new perspectives, existing practices and inspiring new models in cultural landscape conservation.
As changes to lands and peoples accelerate, it becomes increasingly urgent to consider formerly disregarded identities or unidentified voices. Transformations, resulting from climate change, tourism development, and war, necessitate an expansion of the term ‘landscape’ to include 鈥榤emoryscapes鈥�, 鈥榤aterialscapes鈥�, 鈥榠dentityscapes鈥�, and 鈥榤eaningscapes鈥�.聽 Increasingly, values-based heritage designation systems appear inadequate in addressing the needs of communities living in and moving through contested landscapes. Therefore, this year鈥檚 Symposium calls for a rethinking of heritage conservation values to be inclusive of dynamic and migrating lands and peoples.
The Heritage Conservation stream in 杏吧原创鈥檚 School of Indigenous and Canadian Studies is uniquely positioned to facilitate this discussion, drawing from its interdisciplinary context, as well as its connections to related departments and practitioners inside and outside the 杏吧原创 community.
