Data4UA multiplier event “War, Cultural Heritage, and Higher Education”

Join us for the Data4UA multiplier event “War, Cultural Heritage, and Higher Education” on 29 April at 10.00 CEST (11.00 EEST) on Zoom. In this closing event of the project “Data4UA. Capacity Building for Data-Driven Cultural Heritage Management in Ukraine”, we will take a look back at the results and learn about the future plans of the project partners.

The programme includes a lecture by Associate Professor Jonathan Westin and Professor Gunnar Almevik (University of Gothenburg) “Saint Sophia’s Inscriptions: Participatory and research grounded approaches to data collection during war”. Associate Professor Sanita Reinsone (University of Latvia) and initiator of the NGO #ScienceForUkraine will speak about the vital role of international cooperation and active support in protecting Ukraine’s cultural heritage, sustaining research, and strengthening professional communities under war conditions. There will also be an opportunity to hear the experiences of the project partners – Space4CC, Institute of Literature, Folklore and Art of the University of Latvia, University of Ljubljana and Lviv Polytechnic National University.

The event concludes a project launched at the end of 2023. The Data4UA project aimed to enhance the capacity of European higher education institutions (HEIs) to address cultural heritage emergencies, particularly in Ukraine. It focused on examining HEIs’ and society’s response to heritage crises, improving the knowledge and skills of HE staff and students in heritage safeguarding, and exploring HEIs’ role in promoting societal responses.
