Australia ICOMOS invites you to a weekend of
symposia and a field trip
TAS Symposia & Field Trip, 10-12 November 2018
Australia
ICOMOS is holding two back-to-back Symposia in Hobart over 10-12 November 2018.
The Cultural Landscape
Diversity & the Implications for Management Symposium (10-11 November)
and the Under the
Microscope – Exploring Science Heritage Symposium (11-12 November) are
timely fora to review and discuss the identification and management of these
two aspects of cultural heritage – one an established, but rapidly developing
area, and the other relatively invisible and little known.
- Cultural Landscape Diversity & the Implications for
Management Symposium –
this symposium is aimed at exploring the diversity of cultural landscapes
and what this diversity means for the identification, categorisation,
assessment and management of cultural landscapes. It is intended as an
opportunity to review where Australia is at in relation to the
conservation of cultural landscapes, and to explore how best practice in
this area can be maintained into the future.
- Under the Microscope – Exploring Science Heritage
Symposium – this symposium will shine
light on the physical heritage of Australia’s long history of science and
innovation and the identification and conservation of this ‘science
heritage’. It is designed to be a multidisciplinary dialogue that explores
the heritage of Australian science, including what science heritage is,
what significant science heritage we have in Australia, and whether there
are particular management needs for the conservation of this heritage.
The symposia
are open to all people with an interest in cultural landscapes and/or science
heritage. Each symposium will be a combination of presented papers with
opportunities for discussion of the issues raised and the implications and
needs for heritage conservation. A joint
symposia field excursion on Sunday 11 November will present
symposia participants with the opportunity to visit some outstanding and
diverse Tasmanian cultural landscapes and science heritage sites within
southeastern Tasmania.
