The ESACH Talks series is returning!
We have revamped for 2023 and are planning multiple talks and panel discussions this year on a variety of topics that have the potential to change the discourse of current heritage debates in Europe and around the globe.

ESACH Talks are interactive, fast-paced events that provide a platform for sharing knowledge amongst students and young professionals working within cultural heritage studies.

Attendance is open to everybody, not just ESACH Members! Follow us on social media as we announce our panelist.
THEME

Each panelist will give a short lightning talk about their work and their vision for the future of youth contribution to the cultural heritage sector.

PARTNER EVENT 
The Future is Heritage -FISH summit 2022-

Where: Prague, Czechia
Date: 24-27 September 2022
Theme tracks: Heritage and conflict | Heritage and inclusion |Contested heritage | Heritage and personal development

Closing Remarks: FisH participants delivered a compelling message at the end of the European Cultural Heritage Summit. You can watch the statement on the link below (European Heritage Policy Agora, Part II, from ca. 50:00 onwards).
Details
Event to address important themes relating to the field of heritage in Europe. In a variety of lectures, workshops and indoor or outdoor discussions, hosting intergenerational exchanges. The event ran in semi-parallel within the programme of the annual European Cultural Heritage Summit 2022, organised by Europa Nostra from 25-27 September in partnership with its European and Czech partners. 
Theme
Heritage and Conflict
The session discusses the impact of war on heritage with a special focus on Ukrainian heritage. It aims to bring forward ways of rescuing and preserving heritage in conflict situations and the role of International organisations in the process, before, during and after the conflict.​​​ 
Heritage and Inclusion 
​Heritage plays an increasingly important role in the development of the contemporary city. How does your city facilitate its past for the community? What are the advantages of re-development compared to new construction? These questions and more will be covered during this seminar.
Contested Heritage
Colonizing powers had always a strong voice in creating narratives. Even today, museums tell stories of colonial glory rather than colonized downtrodden realities. Colonial heritage in the form of paintings, texts, and artifacts, is displayed and used to refurbish neo-colonial narratives of mighty entrepreneurs, strong captains, and even humanist politicians. In this session, the transatlantic slave trade, as well as the material culture produced by and about enslaved Africans in Dutch Brazil is used as a case study to stimulate discussion around the contested (and too often overlooked) colonial heritage of museums in the contemporaneity. 
Heritage and Personal Development
The session will focus on ways to go beyond the conventional methods of education in heritage studies. It aims at exploring different skills needed by heritage professionals today and discusses the present issues in establishing oneself in the field. ​
Speakers
Heritage and conflict: Elisabeth Korinth: Vice President, Blue Shield Germany & Anastasiia Putilina: Young heritage professional from Ukraine and a master studies candidate of World Heritage Studies in Germany. 
Heritage and inclusion: Jean-Paul Corten: Programme Leader of Urban Heritage Strategies
Contested heritage: Carolina Monteiro MA: PhD candidate at Leiden University (NL), part of the ERC Project “BRASILIAE. Indigenous Knowledge in the Making of Science: Historia Naturalis Brasiliae (1648).”

For that purpose, this meeting hosted by the Complutense University of Madrid wants to contribute to the development of ideas and the sense of responsibility of the whole society in the fulfilment of the UN SDGs. In fact, 100% of the energy consumed by this university comes from renewable sources. We want the 2030 Agenda to be present in some way in the presentations we will hear and in the meeting organization itself. Our Cultural Heritage has much to contribute in the fight against the climatic emergency, something that it was well reflected in the development of the COP25 Madrid-Chile 2019. 

ESACH Meeting 2021 Madrid is conceived to give voice to many young participants and for that we launch a Call for Proposals for the election of 14 speakers for presentations and the novelty of the Call for Posters, for another 8 people. In addition, we will invite professionals with a long career, also professional and social associations to participate in specific presentations and discussion tables.
