    ROUNDTABLE ‘NEW NARRATIVES AND INTERPRETATIONS’ – PART I


    SCOPE AND PURPOSES
    Urban transformations and unsustainable expansion processes, climate change, predatory tourism, degradation of protected areas, transnational exodus and the consequent generalized exhaustion of relations between society and nature, as well as socio-environmental and armed conflicts, bring new challenges to our collective heritage in the 21st century.
    Most contemporary society has chosen urban centers and megacities to live. Urbanization processes had increasingly intensified and, at the same time, created opportunities. They also generated problems, tensions and impacts in different scales and territorial contexts that will need to be faced and overcome in the coming decades.
    In view of the multiple environmental and socio-cultural challenges faced in a context of economic crisis deepened by the Covid-19 pandemic, which affect societies in different spheres, the role and meaning of heritage will need to absorb theoretical, conceptual and practical demands and renewed agendas to reflect on the existing urban social structures beyond the consolidated concepts that traditionally define the relations between society and its traditional historical groups and its interface with the environment and the landscape.
    New approaches to heritage need to ask why and for whom heritage sites are protected, providing meaningful narratives for users to ensure their preservation. Gender, ethnicity, race and income are key aspects of diversity and inequality in the current geopolitical context to be considered.
    In this way, it becomes relevant to create spaces for dialogue and exchange of knowledge and sharing of experiences, training and work opportunities for young professionals in the countries of Latin America and Lusophone Africa.
    The spoken and written language, in addition to the form of communication, is an important cultural component. Portuguese is now a language spoken by around 250 million people worldwide. Although a significant part of scientific production and works related to UNESCO and World Heritage are carried out in English, if we want to have an effort of local dialogue and reflection on strategies and needs related to new approaches to heritage in the Portuguese-speaking world, we also need to do it in Portuguese.
    In this sense, the intention is to interweave common concepts and methods in the context of diversity and cultural influences between the Portuguese-speaking countries of Latin America and Africa and the search for awareness, insertion and training of diverse social extracts in the conservation of heritage.
