NATIONAL HERITAGE BOARD

Inara Bula was appointed head of the National Heritage Board of Latvia in March 2025. 

She graduated from the University of Latvia, Faculty of Economics and Social Sciences, with a specialisation in International Business, and also obtained a qualification in Art History and Theory from the Art Academy of Latvia.

Her professional activities in monument conservation include policy planning, practical monitoring, membership in non-governmental organisations, and participation in maintenance processes. Early in her career, she worked for the Ministry of Culture in policy and financial planning, specifically in the field of heritage conservation. During her time at the National Heritage Board of Latvia, she gained practical knowledge in monument conservation, which she later applied by leading a museum in a medieval castle and manor complex.

Until March 2025, she served as the chair of the ICOMOS Latvia National Committee.

A LITTLE BIT OF HISTORY
The first European Heritage Summit was organised in London from April 26 to 28, 2006 by Dr Simon Thurley, former Chief Executive of English Heritage. The mission of the summit was to bring together for the first time those responsible for Europe's cultural heritage, to create an opportunity to exchange experiences in heritage management and to initiate joint action. The first summit brought together 23 European countries, who agreed in the summit's final declaration to continue to meet annually in the form of a European Heritage Heads Forum. Each year, future host countries are chosen by mutual agreement at the annual meeting, so that the tradition can continue.
