Heritage of the everyday: overlooked and undervalued?

July 19, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 5:00 pm

This Symposium will examine methods, tools and approaches that engage with ‘everyday heritage’, or the values associated with ordinary people and everyday life. It includes presentations and panel discussions on heritage and social value, digital methods and heritage industry practice. The Symposium’s Keynote Speaker is Professor Sian Jones, University of Stirling, UK, an interdisciplinary scholar with expertise in cultural heritage, as well as on the role of the past in the production of power, identity, and sense of place. Speakers and panellists will include team members from the Everyday Heritage Project, as well as leading Australian and international special guests who are working at the intersections of heritage practice and theory (Prof Stuart Jeffrey, Glasgow School of Art; Prof Denis Byrne, Western Sydney University; Chris Johnston, Heritage Specialist; Martina Tenzer, University of York; Dr Damian Lucas, Heritage NSW).

The Symposium is also an Australia ICOMOS event that promotes the ICOMOS 21st General Assembly and Scientific Symposium which will take place in Sydney (31 August – 9 September).
