Title of presentation: “Putting the making in place-making: Resilient communities and heritage in an age of austerity”

Abstract:
As Europe confronts a polycrises of transitioning energy supplies, food sovereignty, climate change, and threats to national securities, it might be easy to lose sight of heritage as a component within the cultural fabric of communities. Yet as a process – both tangible and intangible – heritage is indispensable in offering a forward-looking resilient future for communities at the local level. Drawing from a UKRI Arts and Humanities Research Council-funded project, and over six years of research with communities from some of the most deprived areas of the UK, Associate Professor Alex Langlands examines how practical engagement with ‘heritage’ amongst communities can operate within a cross-curricular pan-policy framework for delivering equitable futures in place-based economic regeneration.

Title of presentation: “Intangible heritage and the market: making it work for communities”

Abstract:
Although there is increasing interest in the synergies between economic development and intangible cultural heritage safeguarding, there is little guidance on how to address challenges experienced by communities and practitioners in controlling or benefiting from market engagement. These challenges can be due to factors such as gaps in legal protection and weak market leverage. Drawing on a desk review prepared for UNESCO in 2023, in preparation for developing a guidance note on the issue, this presentation sets out a number of concepts, planning approaches and policy interventions that could be borrowed, adapted and reused to assist communities and other stakeholders in managing economic dimensions of safeguarding.
