SUMMARY:IE Conference: Re-interpreting heritage in the light of Faro
DESCRIPTION:16-19 April 2026 in Faro\, Portugal \nWe will gather in Faro to discuss how interpretation can enhance the value of heritage – both natural and cultural – for people and societies in European democracies.\nIt was here where the Council of Europe launched the “Faro Convention” in 2005\, embarking on a journey towards more democratic\, people-centred\, and value-based practices in dealing with Europe’s heritage.\nThe official legal text refers to cultural heritage only\, its underlying rationale matters for all heritage interpretation\, including natural heritage\, as Europe is facing multiple challenges.\nJoin us to discuss how the Faro spirit can inspire theory and practice of interpretation. And\, vice versa\, how new approaches to co-creative interpretation can empower Faro heritage communities while strengthening cohesion of democratic societies committed to European values and sustainable development as ideals which are rooted in Europe’s past. Find out more about the theme and call for papers here.  \nThe city of Faro and its surroundings\, in Portugal’s Algarve\, are alluringly rich in natural and cultural heritage. \nFaro is situated in the extreme south-west of Europe and the whole region has been shaped throughout history by the succession and coexistence of diverse cultures and religions arriving by land and sea. It can look back on a turbulent past and it displays traces of these events everywhere. Many names in present-day Portugal and Spain testify to the influence of Romans\, Byzantines\, Visigoths and finally Moors. For centuries\, explorers set sail from the Iberian Peninsula exporting\, in turn\, influences from this region.\n \nWhat the Muslims once called Al Gharb\, which simply meant the West\, is what we now know as the Algarve and\, with plenty of sunshine and beaches\, it is one of Europe’s most popular tourist destinations. But the Algarve is much more than that. Between the Atlantic Ocean and the mountains in the hinterland\, we can discover a diverse landscape rich in natural and cultural treasures. \nThis geologically diverse landscape is the home of carob\, fig\, almond and eucalyptus trees\, not to mention the ancient olive trees and mighty cork oaks. The people of the Algarve have always known how to use the assets of the region and old traditions live on in many places\, many adapted to the times. \nRegister here: Interpret Europe conference 2026 – Registration

SUMMARY:GAHI Webinar: A woman’s place is… Interpreting women’s built heritage and women’s narratives
DESCRIPTION:Global Alliance for Heritage Interpretation is inviting all interpreters around the world to a series of webinars. \nFriday 29 May May 06:00 CEST\nA woman’s place is… Interpreting women’s built heritage and women’s narratives\n \nThough women’s historical narratives have become much more expected in museum exhibitions over the last four or five decades\, when it comes to interpreting built heritage have we progressed as far? Do we still fall into the trap of imagining historical women only in domestic settings? How do we approach the idea of women’s physical places and spaces historically and in the present? \nTo tackle these and other questions about interpreting women’s built heritage\, please join Interpretation Australia’s Dr Meighen Katz in conversation with Justine Dalla Riva\, Executive Director of Melbourne’s Her Place Women’s Museum and Shelly Kube\, Site Manager at the Cascades Female Factory in Hobart\, part of the Port Arthur Historic Sites and one of the UNESCO Australian Convict Sites.  \n  \nPresenters \nDr Meighen Katz is a public historian\, curator and heritage consultant. After six years working for one of Melbourne’s major architecture and heritage practices\, she has recently established her own consultancy\, Katzeye Interpretation\, History & Heritage. \nPrior to her commercial work\, Dr Katz worked at Heritage New Zealand Pouhere Taonga\, where she developed the pilot project for the Rainbow List\, a programme highlighting sites of significance to the LGBTQ+ community. She also taught university courses in urban history\, public history and museum studies. Her research interests have included the interpretation of the Great Depression of the 1930s and museum depictions of women convicted of violent crimes\, particularly infanticide. \nDr Katz has developed interpretation strategies for municipalities\, institutions and infrastructure projects\, as well as undertaking small site and single-building projects. In her interpretive practice\, she is particularly committed to developing innovative ways for communities to address difficult historical narratives and sites.  \nJustine Dalla Riva is the Executive Director of Her Place Women’s Museum Australia\, the country’s dedicated museum of women’s history\, located at the Abbotsford Convent in Melbourne — itself one of Victoria’s most significant heritage sites. Her Place officially opened in March 2026\, celebrating the lives and legacies of Australian women and championing their visibility in the public landscape. \nPrior to Her Place\, Justine spent six years as inaugural CEO of the Victorian Pride Centre — Australia’s first purpose-built LGBTIQA+ cultural and community hub — where she led the organisation from concept through to a thriving cultural institution welcoming more than 65\,000 visitors in its first two years. \nWith a background in communications\, strategy and not-for-profit leadership\, Justine brings a practitioner’s perspective on how institutions can bring overlooked narratives to new audiences and make women’s stories not just visible\, but central. \nShelly Kube is the Manager of the Cascades Female Factory in South Hobart\, Tasmania. This World Heritage-listed site preserves the extraordinary history of thousands of convict women and children who lived\, worked\, and faced punishment within its walls. Their experiences of hardship\, strength\, courage\, and resilience form an essential part of Australia’s national story. \nDuring her 30-year career with the Port Arthur Historic Site Management Authority (PAHSMA)\, Shelly has held numerous leadership roles in heritage interpretation and management. At the Cascades Female Factory\, she authored the immersive visitor tours. These tours invite guests to view history through a human lens\, walking in the footsteps of the women who built the nation from its margins. \nShelly’s passion ensures the site continues to educate and inspire. Driven by the firm belief that history matters\, she works to share women’s voices from the past to help shape a more compassionate and informed future. \nPre-register to receive the link for attendance at: https://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/00-5GegtTfO7X9YFLDd1Kw
