Visibilité marginalisée : L’examen de la représentation électronique des peuples autochtones dans deux lieux historiques nationaux à Terre-Neuve-et-Labrador – Jared Hogan

*Présentation en anglais, des sous-titres en français seront disponibles.

Abstract: Until recently, narratives rooted in colonial ideology have been perpetuated through Newfoundland and Labrador (NL) history classes and public heritage initiatives, spotlighting settler histories surrounding the migratory fishery and colonial expansion into the « New World » Indigenous heritage. This lack of Indigenous visibility in heritage contributes to a problematic historical narrative that discredits the presence of Indigenous peoples in NL before and after colonization, and de-legitimizes Indigenous groups’ historical knowledge. This presentation summarizes the results of digital media analysis on the extent to which Indigenous cultures are represented in the virtual heritage of two World Heritage and National Historic Sites of Canada located in NL: 1) Red Bay, Labrador, and 2) L’Anse aux Meadows, Newfoundland.

Welcome to [Growth] Machine: An Analysis of Heritage Conservation in the Intensifying City – Ben Daub

*Présentation en anglais, des sous-titres en français seront disponibles.

Abstract: As municipalities strive to meet urban intensification targets, developable and redevelopable land has become increasingly scarce and has placed additional pressure on inter-urban areas, including those with built heritage resources, to accommodate such changes. Using the City of Toronto as a case study, this report sought to review how often different heritage adaptation project types are used and how their uses correlate with urban intensification; examine how heritage professionals value heritage conservation, how their valuation has changed over time, and their observations towards how other heritage professionals’ valuations have changed over time; and determine how valuation of heritage conservation by professionals translates into the preference and use of different heritage adaptation project types. Analysis revealed that highly intensifying areas often incur a higher number of heritage adaptation projects, that façadism has emerged as the most commonly used heritage adaptation type, that most heritage professionals value heritage conservation and have modified their valuation during their career, and that level of experience and professional role play the greatest role in determining adaptation type preference.
