IRIS Workshop "The Living Rural Heritage of uplands", 6-7 April

The 1st International Workshop of the IRIS project, entitled "The Living Rural Heritage of uplands", will be held on 6 and 7 April 2022. The  workshop will be the first opportunity to present the project to a wide audience of researchers and interested in the topic, and an opportunity to initiate a first discussion with local stakeholders.

The IRIS project (funded in 2019 by the JPI - Cultural Heritage Protection and Use call in the framework of Horizon2020) aims to study Europe’s rural heritage in its complexity (sites, landscapes, tangible and intangible heritage) and to highlight the active and essential role that communities can play in its conservation and protection.

The meeting will include different modalities (conferences, round tables, field discussions) to expand the potential scientific return through comparison and the involvement of local stakeholders. 

Attendance in person at the workshop is free of charge, but for organisational reasons we ask to people interested in partecipating, to register sending your personal details (name, surname, affiliation), to the following e-mail address: This email address is being protected from spambots.
