My mind is blown by this Glossary of Communities, created to elevate the visibility of "heritage words" to the normalizing/universalizing words often used in general and technical conservation glossaries. Thank U dear Renée Riedler for clueing me in! #MaterialCulture #heritage #art glo-co.org

Very recently, a long-lost Klimt has resurfaced, along with a silenced story. @noemieetienne.bsky.socials student, Sarah Hübler, looks into Austria’s colonial past through the portrait of Prince William Nii Nortey Dowuona, a performer in 1900s so-called ethnographic shows.

As the main challenges,we identified fewer successors to continue the traditional techniques.To sustain traditional textile manufacturing, it is crucial to support artisans, but also to build new professional networks, find new clients and spread awareness about the craft both in Senegal and abroad.

What a wonderful experience in Senegal! We discussed conservation, its multiple definitions, and its political uses. Conservation was challenged by our great speakers, lively audience, and many songs and dances. Let's work for more justice, nuance, and fun in the museum world, academia, and beyond.
Sargal Fatima Fall Niang! We closed the day with a heartfelt ceremony honoring Fatima Fall Niang. She is an iconic figure in heritage management in 🇸🇳, dedicating her life to its preservation. A former director of CRDS in Saint-Louis, she combined practical experience with theoretical approaches.

In this context, we discussed the role of the government in funding restoration of historical buildings and argued that the process of rebuilding can strengthen identities. Built heritage isn’t just monuments--it’s a source of learning and unlearning.
