    Inheriting the City: Advancing Understandings of Urban Heritage

    31 March – 4 April, 2016, Taipei, Taiwan

    This conference invites academics, researchers and practitioners to consider the ways that heritage is being protected, managed and mobilised in rapidly changing and pressurised urban contexts. This multidisciplinary event will explore the type of heritage, both tangible and intangible, that cities and towns will pass to future generations, and the processes through which the heritage of cities is being re-made, re-presented and re-used. The Ironbridge International Institute for Cultural Heritage, University of Birmingham, welcomes papers from all disciplines and fields. To submit a paper, please email a 300 word abstract to Ironbridge@contacts.bham.ac.uk
