The Heritage Council of Western Australia, Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Committee, and the Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage are pleased to host the 2025 State Heritage Conference with the theme The Heritage Ecosystem, highlighting the evolving values of the State’s cultural heritage.
Heritage lies at the heart of an ecosystem that interacts with diverse fields such as environmental sciences, economics, education and technology. These fields have shaped heritage practices over the 20th century and continue to influence how we preserve heritage and history for future generations.
We invite expressions of interest for presentations related to these themes from researchers, practitioners, community members, and heritage owners or managers, including early-career researchers, young professionals and youth representatives.
