What does the future of archaeology look like, and who are the people shaping it? Join us for a special edition of our ‘This is Archaeology’ series as we hand over the microphone to those defining the future of the sector. This showcase event celebrates the vital and innovative work being done by professionals in the early stages of their careers.
This showcase celebrates the wide spectrum of career paths that make up the modern heritage sector. The final panel will be selected to feature speakers from a wide range of professional backgrounds, from fieldwork and historic building conservation to museum curation, academic research, and beyond. It’s a unique opportunity to hear fresh perspectives and learn about the cutting-edge projects and new challenges that are defining the discipline.
In a fast-paced, ‘mini-conference’ format, we will be joined by a panel of speakers who will each deliver a short, dynamic presentation. Applications to join our panel are open now, and we encourage early career professionals to apply here. The full panel will be announced in October. After the talks, you’ll have the chance to put your questions directly to the speakers in a moderated Q&A session.
This event is run in partnership with the CIfA Early Careers Special Interest Group to champion and celebrate the essential contribution of new professionals to the sector.
