Exhibiting Hidden Histories: Bringing Art History Projects to Publics through Digital Exhibitions and XR

June 3-7, 2024 | 7th Edition

Focus
All stakeholders, from researchers to professionals, policy makers and citizens must contribute to achieve sustainable development and the SDGs.  Researchers have to provide the acquired knowledge, whereas professionals and policy makers need the capacity to face and manage complex issues. Citizens’ engagement is necessary in order to promote a constructive dialogue that supports both research and policy.

The program offers students and early career researchers the opportunity to critically reflect, with the help of highly qualified experts, on topical issues that raise ethical and deontological dilemmas, relating to ageing and end of life.
