Interpret Europe conferences 2024
Sustainability: Challenging mindsets through heritage interpretation
21 March – 24 March 2024, Koper, Slovenia
Join us in Slovenia from 21 to 24 March 2024 for a packed programme of inspiring keynote speeches, workshops, presentations and study visits, where we’ll explore how can heritage interpretation challenge people’s mindsets in a way that doesn’t focus on doom and gloom but keeps their spirits up for successful transition.
Interpret Europe conferences attract, from as many as 40 countries, up to 200 attendees, all of whom share a dedication to support local people and visitors in their search for meaning in heritage. Besides seminal keynote speeches and study visits to remarkable heritage sites, IE conferences benefit from up to 40 presentations and interactive workshops delivered by their attendees.
Koper, a green-labelled multicultural destination, will be the location for our exchanges on such questions. Istria region, a lively crossroads area of cultures and languages, the junction of South, West and East, is rich in history, with a difficult past but now a more peaceful coexistence in a united Europe that should be able to inspire us. What’s more, the karst hinterland with its countless underground caves, Mediterranean vegetation and the wild fir and spruce forests of the Dinaric Alps, home to numerous rare species, will provide us with many opportunities for taking deep breaths in nature.
