Critical Heritage Studies and the Future of Europe_Towards an integrated, interdisciplinary and transnational training model in cultural heritage research and management

Description du projet

Combler le fossé entre la recherche et la pratique dans le cadre du patrimoine culturel

Dans un monde où le patrimoine culturel est éclipsé par d’autres disciplines universitaires et déconnecté de la pratique professionnelle, sa reconnaissance est cruciale. Le projet CHEurope, soutenu par le programme Actions Marie Skłodowska-Curie, intégrera des cadres théoriques et méthodologiques. En tant qu’effort de collaboration, il améliorera la formation universitaire, ouvrira des perspectives d’emploi et encouragera une approche critique qui place le patrimoine culturel dans des contextes sociaux, économiques et politiques. Des séminaires de recherche, des cours d’été et des détachements permettront aux étudiants d’acquérir des connaissances transnationales et interdisciplinaires susceptibles de faciliter les dialogues démocratiques et de promouvoir l’entreprenariat et l’innovation dans le secteur en expansion du patrimoine. CHEurope entend dévoiler le potentiel caché du patrimoine culturel et remodeler son avenir. Il fournira des connaissances transnationales et interdisciplinaires.

Objectif

CHEurope focuses on developing a new integrated theoretical and methodological framework to enhance the academic and professional training and open future job opportunities in cultural heritage preservation, management and promotion. Heritage has commonly been perceived through its contingent relationship to other areas, preventing it to be considered as a ‘legitimate’ scientific discipline. Moreover, research and practice in this field are still too often seen as separate dimensions. Thus, there is an increasing need to address these diverging trends in the expanding heritage industry with a critical approach that situates cultural heritage in its social, economic and political frameworks, as well as in professional practice.
Bringing together a network of key European academic and non-academic organisations, the project will explore the processes by which heritage is ‘assembled’ through practice-based research in partner institutions that connect students to their future job markets and publics. Our aim is to inform more conventional aspects of cultural heritage designation, care and management with a strong focus on present and future consumers. We propose an advanced learning strategy based on the emerging field of Critical Heritage Studies, which combines theoretical and instrumental knowledge at a transnational and interdisciplinary level, in a series of research seminars, summer schools and secondments. The program is based on themes where cultural heritage is undergoing profound change, such as Heritage Futures, Curating the City, Digital Heritage, Heritage and Wellbeing and Management and Citizen Participation. In so doing, this research will have a direct impact on future heritage policies and be linked explicitly to new modes of training. These will enable future practitioners to facilitate a more democratic and informed dialogue between and across various heritage industries and their users, promoting entrepreneurship and innovation in this field.
