INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE

AURORA
Access – Universal equity – Reuse – Openness – Representation – Activation

Istituto Italiano di Studi Germanici
Sala Convegni
18-19 November 2026

On 18 and 19 November IISG hosts AURORA, an international conference devoted to the cultural heritage of Nordic minority communities in the age of digitisation. Its title is an acronym that charts its course: Access, Universal equity, Reuse, Openness, Representation, Activation. Around these six dimensions, researchers, archivists and cultural heritage professionals will explore how to make the digital transition truly equitable and participatory, so that communities’ memory is told with them, not merely about them.

The conference takes inspiration from the DIGICHer project, funded by the European Union’s Horizon Europe programme (Grant Agreement No. 101132481). We look forward to welcoming you at Villa Sciarra.
