Green Industrialization: Pathways towards Inclusive and Sustainable Industrial Development
The four-day virtual instructor-led in-depth training will be organized using a dynamic mix of lecture-based and participatory methods customized to meet the needs of the countries’ desire to move toward an inclusive green economy transition. The delivery of the program will be based upon the latest knowledge products; capacity building materials developed by PAGE partners, and place a strong emphasis on group work and use of country-case studies. The program also features a shared virtual workspace for participants to work in a group and access necessary course materials.
Industrial Heritage as a Source of Social Empowerment and Economic Revitalization
The course will look at tangible and intangible heritage – landscape, built heritage, mobile heritage, practices, knowledge, social structures – linked to redundant industrial landscapes. It will address the question of how cultural heritage can change the cultural identity of a region promoting an optimistic future. The course aims to improve the participants’ ability to understand industrial heritage within the dynamic relationship of three levels: the macro-level of regions (spatial planning and territorial development), the meso-level of settlements (urban planning), and the micro-level of buildings. The course will look at the regeneration not only of individual buildings but also of entire regions. However, adaptive reuse of buildings and complexes will be a special focus.
Music as Heritage: from Tradition to Product - Online Musicology
Following the success of our 10-day summer course ‘Music as Heritage: from Tradition to Product’ organized with CEU Cultural Heritage Studies in 2019, we will adapt our concept for an online musical heritage course. Based on the experiences of the previous course, we preserve the key academic elements, but transfer and present them in a brand-new online format.
The course tackles the methods and approaches of modern musicology as an integral part of heritage studies, using music as a tool for analysing and describing social changes. The course also aims to explore various aspects of musical heritage management creating audience development-focused, yet socially conscious business policies; as well as to present a contemporary and viable approach to responsible arts management.
