Short Description


HERITAGE 2016 – 5th International Conference on Heritage and Sustainable Development follows the path of the previous editions: it aims at maintaining a state of the art event regarding the relationships between forms and kinds of heritage and the framework of sustainable development concepts.

Once again it was decided that the four dimensions of sustainable development (environment, economics, society and culture) should be the pillars of this event defining a singular approach on how to deal with the specific subject of heritage sustainability. Furthermore, beyond the traditional aspects of heritage preservation and safeguarding, the relevance and significance of the sustainable development concept is to be discussed and scrutinised by some of the most eminent worldwide experts.

For a long time now heritage is no longer considered as a mere memory or a cultural reference, or even a place or an object. As the previous editions of “Heritage” (2008, 2010, 2012 and 2014) have proven, heritage is moving towards broader and wider scenarios, where it becomes often the driven forces for commerce, business, leisure and politics. The Proceedings of the previous editions of this conference are the "living" proof of this trend.
