Publication of "Émergences patrimoniales"

Featured

The Plateia journal released its latest issue intitled "Emergences Patrimoniales", which explores the question of what we consider as "heritage", and in particular "architectural heritage". This notion is currently being reconfigured, with the rise of "alternative heritages", from Europe to Africa. The issue was directed by former IFRA-Nigeria director, Barbara Morovich, and Géraldine Djament. 

Two articles of the issues are dedicated to Nigeria heritage in particular. First, Sébastien Jacquot, Marie Morelle et Émilie Guitard - former IFRA Deputy Director and head of the INFRAPATRI project - published Identifier des relations infrapatrimoniales – Usages, savoirs et attachements autour du végétal à Ìbàdàn (Nigeria) et à Yaoundé (Cameroun). Barbara Morovich and Sa'eed Husaini from the Centre for Democracy and Development (CDD) share an essay on the Promises and Perils of Participation in Digital Restitution Projects in Nigeria.
