GA2023 Opal Patron, Art of Multimedia, is producing a series of short videos to showcase inspiring Australian cultural heritage properties which delegates may visit.

In the fifth video of this series, we learn more about Australia’s Blue Mountains and the Aboriginal community who call this place their home. Hear from Aunty Sharyn Halls, a Gundungurra Elder as she explains what makes this national park so special.

The GA2023 video series will offer a taste of some special Australian cultural places as their leaders share their delight in welcoming you to their World Heritage property to meet the team, exchange ideas, to see and learn what makes them unique.

Australia ICOMOS Mentoring Program – Calling for Mentors!

It’s here again! We need Australia ICOMOS members based in New South Wales to step up and join us as mentors for students from the University of Sydney. There may be a few students from VIC universities, but this will be extended to Victorian members if EOI is received from students studying at the University of Melbourne, Latrobe University and Deakin University.

This year we are part of a global effort to mentor students aiming for careers in cultural heritage as the triennial General Assembly (GA) of ICOMOS international will be held in Sydney between 31st August and 9th September where our mentees may have the opportunity to participate in and attend to a number of events associated with the GA 2023.

Our program has run since 2011 and has been enthusiastically received by both mentors and mentees. The pilot program commenced in the ACT in 2010.

We always have many more students than mentors apply – this restricts the size of the program, so we rely on the generosity of ICOMOS members so that as many students as possible can be paired. Please join if you can!

What is required?

  • It is very easy to be a mentor. We ask mentors to meet with their mentees at least 3 times during the program between July and November. These meetings can be in-person or virtual, and allow discussion about issues involved in heritage practice, and the student’s study and work interests. 
  • We will be holding the program launch event in Sydney in the first week of August to tie up with the commencement of Semester 2.
  • There will be a brief evaluation questionnaire distributed at the end of the year that we ask all participants to complete and return. 
  • How do I get involved as a MENTOR? 
  • If you would like to be an ICOMOS MENTOR, please email an expression of interest to Rebecca Davies, the Australia ICOMOS Secretariat Executive Officer, at (austicomos@deakin.edu.au) by cob on Friday, 7 July 2023.
  • Please provide your contact details (email and a work or mobile number) and a brief outline of your field of professional experience, interests and current practice. This will assist the Mentoring Team in matching mentors and mentees. 
  • Mentors must be Full ICOMOS members and can have professional experience in any sector of cultural heritage practice. We will try to ‘match’ by interest as many students and mentors as possible. 
  • Mentors in other States and Territories: we often have mentoring opportunities in other States and Territories (for students studying by distance through one of the participating Universities). So, if you are keen, but don’t live in NSW – please send us your EOI. We will see what’s possible!
  • How do I get involved as a MENTEE? 
  • Students in participating university courses will be advised of the application process by the focal point at their university. Please contact the person at your university as a first step. 
  • When do we start? 
  • We will be matching students and mentors and hosting the launch event by mid to end-July. ‘Save the date’ information will be provided shortly.
  • We hope that members based in NSW will welcome this opportunity to participate in the efforts of Australia ICOMOS and its partners to support students and emerging professionals across a range of cultural heritage disciplines.for the 2023 Australia ICOMOS Mentoring Team

 Cultural Heritage as a Resource – Technologies for the Paradigm Shift in Archaeology, Conservation and Education | Vienna 15 – 17 November 2023 | Submissions close 30 June 2023

This year’s CHNT will be looking at how to change the way we perceive and handle upcoming challenges and crises while focusing on archaeology and cultural heritage as a resource. The need for technological foundations, resources and education to allow for a digital interaction with cultural heritage assets, raises questions about the impact on workflows, distribution of knowledge, ethics, the digital divide and authenticity. The International Conference on Cultural Heritage and New Technologies provides a platform for exchanging views on the Cultural Heritage protection agenda. The focus is primarily on interdisciplinary cooperation between experts with a strong interest in the
application of new technologies in the field of cultural heritage.

The CHNT Committee invites you to submit a contribution in the form of a long abstract that relate to a specific session (lecture of max. 20 minutes) or round table (short talks of about 5 to 10 minutes). In addition, you can participate in various panels and workshops. Please find further information online: www.chnt.at/call-for-papers/

International Festival of Luoghi Parlanti (Talking Places), The World in Florence | Hybrid | 21-23 November 2023, CEST

We are pleased to invite you to participate in the third edition of the International Festival of Luoghi Parlanti (Talking Places)The World in Florence, which will be held again this year in a hybrid format (in-person and remote), in Florence, from November 21st to 23rd, 2023.

The previous editions in 2021 and 2022 brought together over 140 speakers from 37 countries across 5 continents to share and compare their experiences and attend high-level interventions in the field of cultural and natural heritage.

Throughout our over thirty-year history, we have emphasized how cultural heritage is a powerful tool for uniting people worldwide and can strongly contribute to sustainable territorial development and peaceful coexistence. The issues of the contemporary world, such as the effects of climate change and war, make these activities of comparison more and more necessary, finding synergies between the world of theory and that of practice, in order to direct all activities towards more sustainable and ethical practices.

Therefore, Festival participants (universities, local administrations, cultural operators, and businesses) will be called upon to tell the story of their territories through a storytelling of their traditional knowledge and cultural, tangible, intangible, and natural heritage, making the Festival a place for exchanging and sharing good practices from all over the world, where they can interact with various categories of interlocutors.

We trust that you share the goals of the Festival and that you will want to participate and contribute to the knowledge and enhancement of your territory and its spirit. We invite you to download the participation call at www.theworldinflorence.com.

NEW Auditor General’s Report – NSW State Heritage Assets

This audit assessed how effectively the Department of Planning and Environment (Heritage NSW) is overseeing and administering heritage assets of state significance.
 
Findings
 
Heritage NSW does not have adequate oversight of state significant heritage assets, presenting risks to its ability to promote the objects of the Heritage Act.
 
Information gaps and weaknesses in quality assurance processes limit its capacity to effectively regulate activities affecting assets listed on the State Heritage Register.
 
Heritage NSW has adopted a focus on customer service and recently improved its timeliness in providing advice and making decisions about activities affecting listed assets. But Heritage NSW has not demonstrated how its customer-focused priorities will address known risks to its core regulatory responsibilities.
 
Listed assets owned by government entities are often of high heritage value. Heritage NSW could do more to promote effective heritage management among these entities.

Heritage and climate change – new Victorian guidance to assist in understanding the vulnerability of heritage places and objects to the impacts of climate change

The Heritage Council of Victoria, in partnership with Heritage Victoria, has just released new guidance to help owners and managers of heritage places and objects to consider the vulnerability of their place or object to the impacts of climate change.

The resources can be found on the Heritage Council’s website: Heritage and climate change

The Heritage Council would like to thank Heritage Victoria for their partnership and dedication to the project that has produced these resources. They would also like to acknowledge the work and expertise of Extent Heritage, Point Advisory, Carrig Conservation International and GML Heritage in their development of the different resources.

The Heritage Council would also like to thank the Anglican Parish of Warrnambool, Charter Hall, Forest, Fire and Regions (Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action), the National Trust (Victoria), Parks Victoria and the Royal Botanic Gardens Melbourne for providing information and images for use in the 10 case studies.

Difficult Conversations | 2023 | Ursula Frederick, Ashley Harrison, Tracy Ireland and Justin Magee | British Council

A new open access book edited by Ursula Frederick, Ashley Harrison, Tracy Ireland and Justin Magee brings together cultural heritage and creative arts perspectives to explore the role of culture and art in giving voice to often silenced social issues. The essays, poems and artwork contained within powerfully demonstrate, collectively and individually, how arts research can inspire us to think differently about injustice and inequality in our societies. They show how artists, performers, poets, curators and cultural researchers can all trigger meaningful, and potentially reparative, engagement with past trauma and conflicts and their lingering impacts in the present day. With a primary focus on the contexts of Australia and Northern Ireland, but including also discussions relating to Japan, Canada, Chile and attending to themes that are of global relevance, this volume, and the wider Difficult Conversations project of which it is part, present a diverse, eloquent and provocative statement on the potential of the arts and culture to encourage dialogue and to help build trust and understanding.
