This new initiative, initiated by the University of Geneva, connects academics, professionals and associations working on a wide range of natural and cultural heritage issues. The main purpose is to serve as an informal space and network for exchange on a wide range of heritage issues from multiple perspectives. We are particularly keen to strengthen dialogue between local and international heritage-related institutions and researchers from the wider Geneva area and region.

The Geneva Heritage Lab, hosted by the GEDT, offers an interdisciplinary space for heritage-related research, networking, and teaching. Current collaborative activities:

  • Current members of the Lab include Bille Larsen Peter, Shafiei Neda, and Pascale Bugnon.
  • Current projects include the Horizon-SERI-funded work on decoloniality and university heritage, KNCU-funded Minju projects on minority heritage, and active participation in the Coimbra Heritage group.

  • Collaborative initiative on the Rome heritage dialogues with Florence Graezer Bideau, EPFL, and the ISR.
  • Work with the University of Exeter on decolonial approaches and minority heritage.
  • Collaboration with EPFL on heritage and creativity.
  •  Former visiting researchers: Vira Orlovska (Ukraine), Valeria Mendez (Italy), Feng Sun (China).
