About.



​The majority of Heritage and Education conferences focus on how people can learn about Heritage and Heritage protection through educational (formal or non-formal) procedures. In our understanding, the best way to create awareness about Cultural Heritage is not just to focus on education about Heritage but to make heritage part of the educational process.
​
“Education VIA Culture: An International Conference on the applications of Cultural Heritage in Education”  welcomes contributions with a focus mainly, but not limited, to:

  • Methodological approaches to the use of Cultural Heritage, local, regional, or international, as a teaching medium.
  • Presentation of case studies where cultural heritage was mobilised as teaching medium for any topic.
  • The importance of Intangible Heritage in Education.
  • The role of museums, archaeological sites, exhibitions, and heritage landscapes in education.
  • Case studies where Cultural Heritage assets have inspired art-based teaching applications such as Drama, Theatre, Music, Graphics and so on. 
  • The role of Cultural Heritage in second, foreign, and minority language acquisition and teaching.
  • Ways of bringing together Educational practitioners and Cultural Heritage specialists.
  • The Cultural Heritage of Ethnic and Social minorities and groups and how it can be used as a medium for creating tolerant and diverse societies.
