We are thrilled to announce the call for abstracts for the Midlands4Cities–Arts and Humanities Research Council-funded Cultural Heritage Management and Conservation Conference on 18–19 September 2025 at the University of Nottingham with the theme ‘Keeping cultural heritage alive: An interdisciplinary approach to heritage management and conservation.’
 
This interdisciplinary conference aims to bring together a diverse community, including PhD students, early career researchers, academic staff, and professionals from the cultural sector, government, and non-government organisations.
 
By taking a broad, interdisciplinary approach to issues relating to cultural heritage management and conservation, we aim to:
1.   Advance knowledge and innovation: Disseminate pioneering research, showcase innovative projects, and explore emerging methodologies in cultural heritage management and conservation.
2.   Promote ethical and decolonised practices: Challenge conventional approaches and encourage the development of ethical and equitable practices that centre community voices and address historical injustices.
3.   Foster interdisciplinary collaboration: Encourage dialogue and knowledge exchange between researchers from diverse fields, leading to new and effective approaches to heritage management.
 
In particular, we encourage paper submissions that respond to one or more of the following themes and research questions:
a) Policy development: What are the opportunities for researchers to work with policymakers and influence cultural policy developments?  
b) Community engagement: How do we ensure that research into cultural heritage management engages effectively with local communities?
c) Cultural representation and appropriation: How can we ensure that cultural heritage management is inclusive and representative of diverse cultures?  
d) Decolonisation of methodology and practice: How can approaches to cultural heritage management promote the inclusion of indigenous knowledge and practices?
e) Partnership and collaboration: How can researchers build partnerships and collaborate with industry to protect and preserve cultural heritage?  
f) Digital heritage: How is the cultural heritage landscape being affected by developments in digital technology?
g) Research methodologies: What methodologies can be applied to cultural heritage conservation and management?  
 
We accept papers from diverse fields including (but not limited to) language, culture, arts, literature, dance, music, archaeology, museums, archives, and heritage sciences through paper presentations, exhibits (e.g. posters, photographs, films), and performances (e.g. music, dance).
 
Please send your abstracts HERE before 30 June 2025.
 
The results of the abstract evaluation and registration will be disseminated in the second week of July 2025.
 
Information on the keynote speakers will follow shortly.
