About this Event
While the synergies between historical buildings and sites, and economic development are recognised at a policy level, its social value is more difficult to acknowledge. The power of heritage sites to enhance community identity and attachment to place, or to contribute to the wellbeing of residents and visitors is difficult to quantify. Furthermore, the definition of heritage is evolving and, if seen through the lens of social value, can encompass marginal, everyday sites. It can substantially contribute to the making of local identities that are rarely classified as heritage. As a result the social value is often ignored in their designation and management.
The event is designed not only to generate debate amongst participants, but to reach and sensitise local stakeholders too.
