Connecting Communities Through Conservation — George L. Stout Memorial Lecture

As the ethics of the conservation field evolve, it has become increasingly important that we question what we are conserving, how, and for whom. Join Anya Dani, Director of Community Engagement and Inclusive Practice/Lecturer at the UCLA/Getty Interdepartmental Program in the Conservation of Cultural Heritage, as she discusses her efforts to create a decolonial, community-based framework for conservation in both Okinawa, Japan, and California. If our ultimate goal is the preservation of cultural heritage, then a more expansive view of conservation is needed to best serve the needs of diverse communities.
