The conference theme this year is Extreme Heritage - Managing
heritage in the face of climatic extremes, natural disasters and
military conflicts in tropical, desert, polar and off world landscapes.
It reflects the modern challenge of managing heritage in a changing
and volatile world. The theme puts Australia and its climatic diversity
in a world context and draws together national and international
researchers from across the world working in similar environments
to talk about common and emerging issues.
The conference will be relevant to a broad audience involved in
the heritage industry. It will provide an excellent opportunity
for delegates to meet and exchange ideas with other ICOMOS members
and heritage and other professionals, and will be particularly relevant
to many of our neighbours in the Asia-Pacific region who have to
deal all too often with issues of Extreme Heritage.
Sessions already proposed include
- Off world heritage: the heritage of space exploration
- People, climate change and heritage
- Heritage and Identity
- Managing disaster and risk preparedness
- War of attrition: environmental effects of extreme climates.
- Managing heritage in the wake of war and conflict
