About the event
As part of this week, from March 18 to 20, the Annual T4EU Sustainable Heritage Conference will be organized jointly with EPoCH2026 - the third edition of the international annual conference of the Heritage and Conservation-Restoration research area of Católica, offering a unique platform to explore critical reflections and experimental practices in conservation-restoration and heritage studies within the European context.
The theme invites us to consider the heritage future(s) and future heritage(s): How will our actions today shape our shared tomorrow? What new responsibilities arise as we face rapid ecological, technological, and social transformations? Are our decisions ensuring the sustainability of heritage ecosystems?
From material care to digital memory, from endangered traditions to emerging sustainable solutions and cultural forms, we will be challenged to critically reflect on the evolving landscapes and to imagine new configurations of practice, ethics, and responsibility – on the threshold of change.
For any questions, please contact t4eu@ucp.pt.
